About Mr Kevin Turner

Kevin Turner studied medicine at Cambridge (where he was awarded a double First Class degree) and Oxford (where he qualified in 1993). He undertook specialist Urological training in Oxford (which included a period of full-time research), Edinburgh, and Melbourne. He was appointed as a Consultant Urological Surgeon in Bournemouth in 2007. His clinical interests include urological cancer/prostate disease / minimally invasive surgery. Together with Andrew Wedderburn, he introduced laparoscopic and then robotic prostate surgery to Bournemouth.

Kevin Turner provides a full adult General Urology service for men and women including assessment and management of urinary symptoms, urinary tract infection, prostate assessment, prostate cancer, incontinence, and conditions of the penis and scrotum. He has a particular interest in urological cancers, disease of the prostate / prostate cancer and minimally invasive / robotic surgery.

Mr Turner is co-author of the Oxford Handbook of Urological Surgery. He enjoys teaching Urology to surgical trainees and is a current Examiner for the FRCS(Urology) examination. He has been actively involved in research throughout his career. His period in full time research resulted in numerous presentations and publications, in the award of the European Association of Urology Thesis Award, and in his election the office of Hunterian Professor of the Royal College of Surgeons of England. He co-leads a research group at Bournemouth University where he is a Visiting Professor.

Outside of medicine, his time is spent with his family (he is married to a teacher and is dad to twins who are at University), being involved in the local church, looking after an old house, and running along the footpaths and bridleways of rural Dorset!

Dr Turner is a specialist in his field, therefore his assessment and conclusion aligned well with what I already knew, and that which I didn't. He was thorough, detailed, and always careful to explain the pro's and Con's of the information available, however, for me it was much better than I expected, but I shall keep monitoring as per his recommendation. Overall I was highly pleased with his professionalism and manner, and would not hesitate in recommending him if you are looking for a specialist in this field.

My experience of Mr Turner is that he is an empathetic, kind and caring clinician with a genuine interest in his patients. He has a calm demeanor, backed by experience and knowledge and gives clear explanations with the offer of support beyond the consultation to seek further information or reassurance (perfect for those "I wish I'd asked" moments). His admin support is exemplary. A small but significant detail which I particularly appreciated was the option to schedule a time for a telephone consultation to deliver test results (rather than receiving an ad hoc call) which meant my neurodivergent process had one less thing to worry about.

Mr Turner’s reassuring personality and total professionalism, I find, results in a very satisfying experience. I would always recommend an appointment with Mr Turner for all urological issues.

A very professional and thorough consuiltation by Mr Turner including a clear understanding and consideration all of the options, then culminating in a positive plan to arrive at a successful conclusion. All done in a relaxed and symphathetic manner that made the very best of an otherwise stressful situation.

I consulted with Mr Turner regarding a sensitive issue, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. From the outset, he was professional, understanding, and put me completely at ease discussing something that while I am sure is completely routine; was not easy for me to talk about. His expertise, reassuring manner and the insightful information provided has given me complete confidence in the treatment plan and made what could have been a stressful experience much more manageable. I am extremely grateful for his support.

After a few miscommunications with my local GP on my initial examinations and likely diagnosis, I approached Kevin Turner in a somewhat desperate state to get some clarity on the situation. Kevin was honest, pragmatic and kind and expressed the optimism my with Sarah and I needed at that time. More importantly, he detailed all next steps, started me on treatment immediately and made sure that those early connections were made with the wider Pathway teams. He was available and reactive for follow up calls and advice. He was (and I believe will be) a huge support and comfort to myself and my wife in those initial weeks and I am truly grateful. I would also like to thank Michelle for managing access to Kevin brilliantly!
