Mr Paul John Cathcart provides expert, clear, and reassuring care to his patients. He performs many robotic prostatectomy procedures resulting in quick recovery and undetectable PSA levels. Patients value his approachable manner, aftercare, and professional team. His specialised robotic prostatectomy work provides effective prostate cancer treatment.
I recently underwent a robotic nerve-sparing prostatectomy performed by Paul Cathcart. The outcome has been very reassuring and successful. I was fearful about the surgery, and I delayed the operation as a result. Paul was very understanding about this; he gave me the space to come to the decision myself, which was psychologically very astute of him. When it came to the day of the surgery, I felt well-prepared and even positive about an operation that I had dreaded. Paul has a calm and reassuring manner, and his own self-belief communicated a sense of confidence and encouragement to me. From the outset I found Paul to be very open and easy to talk to, with a mischievous sense of humour, which I enjoyed. His communication style is direct but sensitive. His approach to me was as a friend and an ally, at the same time as being a highly experienced medical professional; he showed a deep understanding of my own particular circumstances. I benefited from his intuitive and empathetic guidance about how prostate cancer develops. Paul genuinely welcomes diversity and is naturally inclusive, involving my partner in discussions. We both found this very helpful. I felt completely at ease sharing information about my private life with him. In spite of his high national and international standing (Prostate Cancer Lead at Guy's NHS) Paul remains approachable and genial. I understand that he makes himself accessible to private patients by staying within the costs agreed with most health insurers. I would also like to thank Raimonda, Paul’s PA, who has been very helpful and supportive thr...

My experience of being treated by Mr Cathcart was outstanding throughout. From initial examinations through tests which established that I had prostate cancer, to explaining the options available and on to surgery and post operative care I cannot fault the treatment I received nor the manner in which it was delivered. Mr Cathcart was thorough, empathetic, clear in his explanations of my symptoms and treatment options, and in managing my expectations of the procedure I elected and the recovery process. The outcome of the surgery appears to have been a great success and for that I owe him a huge debt of gratitude. Honourable mention and my sincere thanks are also due to his excellent lead nurse Michael Martin and his efficient and extremely helpful secretary Raimonda. I would unhesitatingly recommend Mr Cathcart and his team to any man who was looking for top class urological care.

After the operation with Paul in 2021. My prostate was 104cc (the size of a grapefruit) this meant that the cancer could not have been fully visible. Paul showed me on his phone the amount of cancer and there was loads of it. Fortunately he managed to get it all and i have been cancer free for 5 years. Now I am on a yearly PSA thanks to Paul.

My experience with Paul Cathcart has been exceptional the whole way through my Radical Prostate removal process, Paul explains everything you need or want to know with total precision and with so much enthusiasm, you can clearly tell that he is passionate about his job. I am so very pleased I chose Paul Cathcart after him being recommended by a previous Urologist to me. Paul's aftercare detail was impeccable and was always at the end of the phone if I needed him. I would recommend Paul in a blink of an eye as a Urologist/Surgeon.
