I was the first UK urologist to become full professor of urology at Cleveland Clinic, and the first Lead for Urology at Cleveland Clinic London. I am the only urologist globally to be made Visiting Professor of Urology at the University of Oxford and AIIMS in India:

I am one of the top 10 urologists in the UK as voted in a Daily Mail poll by my peers when asked who they'd let their nearest and dearest be looked after:

I was also named as London's Most Influential Doctor in 2019 by the Evening Standard:

I am also a global leader in prostate cancer care, having trained in robotic prostatectomy in New York, Stockholm, Oxford, and London. I have performed over 1000 prostate cancer surgeries, including hundreds with the novel Retzius-sparing technique which vastly improves continence recovery after surgery; my patient outcomes are far better than the UK average and as good as the best surgeons internationally. My surgical innovations have been featured many times in the Press; see examples below:

I was the clinical lead of the National Institute of Health and Care Excellence (NICE) specialist committee on robotic soft tissue surgery, and helped NICE create their first ever guidelines on robotic surgery for the NHS.
I am an exam writer for the Fellowship of the Royal College of Surgeons of England in Urology, an exam that is taken by urologists in the UK and worldwide when they complete training.
I am a scorer of the National Clinical Impact Awards awarded to UK consultants who have demonstrated impact on a national/international scale with their work. I was invited to become a scorer as I was one of the top-scoring applicants in my region of London North-East when I applied in 2019; my own National Award was renewed in 2024.
I am also a world-leading academic and have been awarded the degree of Master of Arts (Oxon) and Membership of the Congregation as recognition of my seniority and academic achievements at this world-leading University. I am the only London urologist to be conferred a Masters by resolution of the University of Oxford.
I operate on patients from all over the world. They are overwhelmingly delighted with the care I provide and many are very happy to speak to prospective patients. I received the Great Patient Experience 2025 Award and a selection of my patient testimonials can be seen here:
