About me
Adam Christopher Cox is Consultant Urological Surgeon and Urology Cancer Lead in the Aneurin Bevan University Health Board. He also holds the position of Honorary Consultant Urological Surgeon at the University Hospital of Wales in Cardiff.
Mr Cox provides a complete service for men concerned about prostate cancer or their urinary symptoms, as he is the only urological surgeon in Wales able to perform all of the following operations on the prostate: robotic surgery for prostate cancer, Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate (HoLEP) and REZUM (water vapour ablation of the prostate).
Mr Cox undertook urology specialist training in South Wales, and was awarded a postgraduate doctorate (MD) by Cardiff University following additional scientific research into mechanisms of prostate cancer development at the European Cancer Stem Cell Research Institute. He later went on to complete sub-specialist training in prostate cancer and robotic surgery under the mentorship of some of the UK’s leading experts in the field.
Mr Cox’s other sub-specialist interests include HoLEP, the gold-standard surgical treatment for men with urine retention and enlarged prostates, and REZUM. REZUM is a state-of-the-art minimally invasive day case treatment for men who are interested in addressing the symptoms of benign prostatic enlargement without the need for medication whilst preserving their sexual function.
In addition, Mr Cox possesses a comprehensive understanding of general urological complaints, which includes the investigation and diagnosis of all suspected urological cancers (i.e. of the kidney, bladder, prostate, and testicle), the management of erectile dysfunction, and urinary stone disease.
