Such clear thoughtful advice given with respect and superb professionalism. I feel that I am in a good pair of hands through this difficult period.

In July 2023 I was diagnosed with Prostate Cancer. The only option I was offered by the NHS was “Watchful Waiting”, and as my cancer developed, hormone treatment to slow the progress of my cancer. I asked my consultant if the roles were reversed would he be happy to accept my prognosis, he said no! He then referred me to Professor Prasanna Sooriakumaran (Professor PS) at the Cleveland Clinic London (CCL). I was reluctant to go to London as I live in Stratford upon Avon and the logistics of traveling to London, parking, hotel accommodation (The CCL offer some excellent packages to cover these areas) and the lack of available close support from family and friends, seemed somewhat daunting. However, in my meetings with Professor PS I became convinced he was the right choice to be my consultant. Professor PS was understanding of my concerns, outlined all my options in detail, and explained why a Radical Prostatectomy would be my best option. He took me through all the stages of the procedure from diagnosis to how my operation would be performed to recovery. Professor PS treated me with respect, understanding and kindness and I was conscious I was dealing with someone at the very top of their game. He was very honest with me explaining that my weight and size of my prostate would make the operation more complicated. I heeded his advice and lost two stone and generally ensured my fitness levels improved before the date of my operation. Fortunately, even with the complications of my weight and the extensive reconstructive surgery required, my radical prostatectomy was a complete success. My recovery has been nothing less than spectacular. The nursing staff at the Cleveland Clinic were excellent. After the surgery I had no pain and no discomfort. I was able to get up the day after my operation and walk about and went home two days later. After 3 weeks I had my catheter removed and was discharged from the CCL. Professor PS kept in touch with me during this period and made time to visit me just before I was discharged.

Mr Vakharia is by far the best specialist I have spoken to with regards to my needs. He has been the only person who has properly heard me and I felt he genuinely really cared about my health compared to all other doctors and specialist I have dealt with. I am so grateful I had his help

From initial treatment plan to post op follow up, your attention to detail, responsiveness, empathy and understanding has been excellent. Above all the accurate and diligent procedure, preserved all nerve endings and the results could not have been better, I had everything fully functioning one week after surgery which blew my expectation. Excellent results for which I will be forever grateful.Thank you.

My experience with Dr Ivaz was nothing short of outstanding. She is an experienced and extremely knowledgable surgeon who made sure I felt comfortable and optimistic about my procedure. I couldn’t recommend a better urologist and couldn’t be happier with the result of my procedure.

All very good and clear.

We had a very good appointment with Mr Giuliani. He let us know exactly what is going to happen with the operation and we felt it was very clear .

Appointment well really well, all questioned answered, and I felt that I am in very good hands, thank you.

Mr Moschonas was very welcoming and listened to me, asked me questions and explained the plans to help me with my problem. I was very pleased and grateful to see him.

Mr Nath explained the risks and benefits of robotic surgery very comprehensively. More importantly, from my experience, he is an extremely competent surgeon in a very important emerging field. My post op recovery was very much faster than that of people I know who had a conventional procedure. His PA is also brilliant, making it easy to deal with any issues which arise such as queries from insurers. A great team.
