About Mr James Douglas
Mr James Douglas has been a Consultant Urologist at the University Hospital Southampton NHS Foundation Trust since 2016. His primary interest is in urological oncology including complex pelvic cancer surgery, RPLND and open nephrectomy. He also enjoys treating patients with general urological conditions including benign prostate problems, erectile dysfunction, lower urinary tract symptoms and UTI. He is proficient in both open and laparoscopic surgery, as well as core endourology.
Mr Douglas graduated from the University of London in 2003 and undertook his specialist training in Wessex Deanery and the University of Southampton where he achieved his MD.

Visit for Malle-related issue. Mr Douglas was fantastic. He took the time to thoroughly explain my issue, the various methods available to remediate the problem and then went on to explain how a secondary issue may be remedied. It was refreshing to have a medial professional “not” opting for medication to resolve problems but good old fashion life style changes etc
A first-rate specialist with excellent knowledge and an impressive ability to communicate his expertise in a very approachable and understandable way
This was my first consultation concerning a raised PSA score following a recent health screening. It was held at the Nuffield Lansdowne Hospital in Bournemouth. Mr Douglas was very professional and personable, and provided a very clear and informative summary of the potential reasons for the raised PSA score and the next steps to be undertaken. Further diagnostic tests have already been arranged for later this month.
