Preservation of nerves around the prostate to preserve erectile function following prostate surgery

I graduated from University College London with distinction and completed my basic surgical training in Cambridge. For my period of research into the preservation of nerves responsible for erectile function during major prostate surgery I moved to the Royal Free Hospital in London during which time I wrote a number of papers on prostate cancer along with the first of many book chapters. On completion of my research I was appointed onto the Urology Specialist Registrar training programme again in Cambridge and spent 6 years mainly in Cambridge & Norwich for my urology specialist training as well as a year in Luton. I was appointed a Consultant to the Luton & Dunstable Hospital in March 2010.

I offer the breadth of urology services with a main interest in urinary stone disease, both its management and prevention. We offer all types of stone treatment the mainstay of which is laser fragmentation of the stones.

My claim to fame is that I was shadowed by the original actors for the medical drama Holby City before it was aired whilst I worked in cardiothoracic surgery at Papworth Hospital in Cambridgeshire.

We have settled in Harpenden and enjoy family life here along with our young family of three daughters who attend school locally.  I have in the past taken flying lessons and hope to be able to pursue this further to the completion of a private pilot’s licence, to uphold a family tradition, something both my father and uncle held.
