About me

I am a Consultant Urological Surgeon at Barts Health NHS Trust, based at The Royal London Hospital, with over 19 years' experience as a consultant. I provide expert assessment, investigation and treatment across the full spectrum of adult urological conditions, with a particular specialist interest in minimally invasive and endoscopic surgery of the upper urinary tract.

As a core member of the Urological Cancer Multidisciplinary Team (MDT), I am actively involved in the management of patients with kidney, ureteric, bladder and other urological cancers, ensuring that every patient benefits from evidence-based, multidisciplinary care. I also serve as the Clinical Lead and Governance Lead for Urology, leading service development, quality improvement and patient safety initiatives within one of the UK's largest urology departments.

I see patients with a wide range of urological concerns, whether they require an initial consultation, specialist investigation, treatment, or an independent second opinion. My practice is centred on providing clear explanations, personalised treatment plans and high-quality, compassionate care.

Areas of Expertise

I offer comprehensive diagnosis and treatment for a broad range of urological conditions, including:

Kidney and ureteric stones, including advanced endoscopic stone surgery.
Blood in the urine (haematuria).
Urinary tract infections.
Benign prostate enlargement (BPH) and lower urinary tract symptoms.
Scrotal conditions, including testicular pain and lumps.
Male health (andrology), including benign penile and scrotal conditions.
Kidney, ureteric, bladder and other urological cancers.
Vasectomy and other minor urological procedures.
Surgical Expertise

My surgical practice encompasses both routine and complex urological procedures, with particular expertise in:

Flexible cystoscopy.
Rigid and flexible ureteroscopy.
Laser stone surgery (laser lithotripsy).
Minimally invasive surgery for upper urinary tract conditions.
Diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopic procedures.
Vasectomy.

I am committed to delivering the highest standards of care using the latest minimally invasive techniques whenever appropriate, aiming to reduce pain, shorten recovery times and achieve the best possible outcomes for my patients.

Areas of interest

My general urological practice covers the full spectrum of adult urology, including lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) and benign prostate enlargement (BPH); haematuria; urinary tract infections; kidney, ureteric and bladder stones; testicular and scrotal conditions (including pain, lumps, hydroceles and varicoceles); erectile dysfunction and male sexual health; vasectomy counselling and no-scalpel vasectomy; urinary incontinence and overactive bladder; elevated PSA and prostate assessment; and urological cancers, including kidney, ureteric, bladder, prostate and testicular cancer.

I provide a comprehensive, patient-centred stone service, offering minimally invasive treatments including flexible cystoscopy, rigid and flexible ureteroscopy, laser stone surgery (laser lithotripsy), ureteric stent insertion and removal, and metabolic assessment to help prevent recurrent stone disease.
