In 2021 my practice was featured by the My Health Specialist website (click to view).
In 2019 the NeuroSAFE PROOF study featured in the Daily Mail newspaper.
During Prostate cancer awareness week 2017 I gave an interview for London Live News regarding the diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer
The annual report for the Orchid cancer campaign for whom I am a spokesperson and to which I contributed featured in the ITN news and Huffington post. I appealled for urgent research to develop tests to allow the dangerous prostate cancers to be distinguished from the less dangerous ones at diagnosis.
In 2014 I led a research project from Cambridge University where I analysed the accuracy of the diagnostic methods for prostate cancer which were the standard at the time. This showed that the methods were inaccurate. The results were reported on national and international TV as well as the lay and medical press. Thankfully, since I reported this work, the methods by which prostate cancer can be diagnosed have improved.
I offer state of the art prostate diagnosis as standard.

Robotic surgery is a specialised area and should only be undertaken by people with relevant training. At UCLH we pride ourselves on training surgeons to the highest possible standards without jeopardising patient safety.
