About me

Mr Dimitrios Moschonas is a Consultant Urological Surgeon based in Guildford. He is a highly skilled specialist managing most aspects of male and female general Urology problems, stones and prostate and bladder cancer diagnostics and treatment. He is also treating patients with paediatric foreskin problems.

His field of expertise is robotic prostate and bladder cancer surgery. He is a core member of the pelvic Uro-Oncology team and robotic Urology fellowship coordinator in Royal Surrey Hospital.

Mr Moschonas has introduced recently the new technique of Rezum treatment for benign prostate hyperplasia at his department. After starting transperineal prostate biopsies under local anaesthetic, he is now offering fusion guided targeted prostate biopsies aiming to improve prostate cancer diagnostics.

He has widely published in basic science, urological and oncological fields. His current focus is on novel biomarkers in prostate and bladder cancer. He is Involved in national trials of robotic assisted radical prostatectomy.
