About Miss Lucy Simmons

Miss Lucy Simmons is a highly respected Consultant Urological Surgeon with a national reputation in the management of prostate cancer.

Lucy completed her medical degree at Newcastle University and undertook her foundation training in the region before moving to the South West for both her core surgical and specialist urology training. She later gained advanced fellowship experience in prostate diagnostics and focal therapy at University College London, developing her expertise in MRI-targeted biopsy and emerging focal treatments. She was appointed as a Consultant Urologist at the Royal United Hospital in Bath, where she now leads the South West regional focal therapy service for prostate cancer. 

Lucy has published and presented extensively on focal therapy, prostate imaging, and shared decision-making in prostate cancer care. Her research and clinical insights have led to invitations to speak at major national urology conferences, and she remains closely involved in evaluating and implementing new technologies that aim to improve outcomes and preserve quality of life for men with prostate cancer.

Known for her clear, supportive communication style, Lucy is committed to personalised, patient-centred care. She works closely with patients to guide them through complex decisions, ensuring that each individual receives the most appropriate evidence-based treatment aligned with their priorities and values.

Other than the delay to start the appointment, which I quite understand, the service provided was great. Everyone was sensitive to the delicate nature of the procedure and the after care was welcomed.
