About Us
Robotic Pyeloplasty

A blockage where the kidney drains into the ureter, called the pelviureteric junction (PUJ) obstruction, can cause pain, recurrent infections, and gradual damage to kidney function. Robotic pyeloplasty is a minimally invasive surgical repair that corrects this obstruction with success rates of around 95%, and is regarded as the gold-standard treatment for PUJ obstruction.

Robotic Radical Cystectomy

For muscle-invasive bladder cancer, complete removal of the bladder remains the most effective treatment. Robotic radical cystectomy combines the curative intent of this major operation with the advantages of minimally invasive surgery with smaller incisions, reduced blood loss, and a faster recovery. It is major surgery, and our team supports you through a structured recovery programme before and after the operation.

Transurethral Resection of Bladder Tumour (TURBT)

Blood in the urine is one of the most important symptoms to investigate promptly. TURBT is the cornerstone procedure for diagnosing and treating bladder tumours, an endoscope is passed through the urethra to remove abnormal tissue from the bladder wall under direct vision. It provides diagnosis and treatment in a single procedure.

TURP – Transurethral Resection of the Prostate

TURP has been the established surgical standard for benign prostate obstruction for decades and remains one of the most effective treatments for men with significant urinary symptoms caused by an enlarged prostate. Performed through the urethra without any incisions, it removes the obstructing prostate tissue and provides durable, long-lasting relief for most men. Modern bipolar or plasma TURP uses saline irrigation, making the procedure safer than older techniques.

GreenLight Laser Prostatectomy

GreenLight laser therapy (photoselective vaporisation of the prostate, or PVP) is an effective, minimally invasive treatment for an enlarged prostate. Using a precisely targeted high-powered laser, obstructing prostate tissue is vaporised through an endoscope with minimal bleeding. It is particularly suited to patients on blood-thinning medication who may not be safe candidates for conventional options.

Robotic Simple Prostatectomy

For men with very large prostates causing significant urinary obstruction, robotic simple prostatectomy offers a minimally invasive surgical solution. Unlike radical prostatectomy (which is for cancer), simple prostatectomy removes only the inner obstructing portion of the prostate, preserving the outer capsule. The robotic approach delivers the outcomes of this established operation through small incisions, with reduced blood loss and a faster recovery than the traditional open approach.

Kidney Cancer

Most kidney lesions are incidentally detected on imaging tests done for another purpose. They can also present with blood in your urine, flank pain or a lump you can feel in your flank.

Bladder Cancer

Most bladder cancers are detected due to the presence of either visible or non-visible blood in your urine. Some patients also notice troublesome urinary symptoms, such as a burning sensation or passing urine more frequently than usual.

Upper Tract Urothelial Cancer

Urothelial cancer can also arise in the lining of the kidney’s collecting system or the ureter. These cancers are uncommon but may be found on tests for worsening kidney function, or if a patient has blood in the urine or flank pain.

Testicular Cancer

Testicular cancer is the most common cancer in men aged 15–35 and is highly curable, with long-term survival > 95%. It usually presents as a painless lump or swelling of the testicle.

Penile Cancer

Penile cancer is rare but highly treatable when found early. Current focus prioritises cure while preserving as much form and function as possible. It may present as an ulcer, skin discolouration or lump.

Adrenal Lesion

Adrenal lesions are common and usually found incidentally on imaging, appearing in ~3% of abdominal CTs and with increased frequency in older people (~10%). Most adrenal lesions are harmless, but some can produce excessive hormones or become potentially cancerous.
