About Mr Sunil Kumar
Mr. Sunil Kumar is a Consultant Urological Surgeon based in Reading, UK. He completed his Specialist Registrar training in the South West of England and was awarded the South West Urologists Best Registrar Prize in 1999 for his contributions to the field.

In addition to his clinical practice, he has contributed to numerous international publications and textbook chapters, and his research into stone disease continues to be an area of ongoing interest.
As a regional expert in HoLEP, Mr. Kumar has performed over 800 procedures, furthering his belief in the effectiveness of this advanced laser prostatectomy technique for patients requiring treatment for prostate conditions.
