About

Mr Declan Cahill is a Consultant Urological Surgeon. In 1993, he qualified at Charing Cross and Westminster Medical School (now Imperial College) with distinction.

Much of his extensive medical career has been spent training in London. Owing to his medical excellence, he was awarded the Hallett Prize Gold Medal for General Surgery and then the Keith Yates Gold Medal for Urology. After completing his urology training in London, he undertook fellowship training at the Institut Mutualiste Montsouris in Paris, the world-leading institution at the time, where his specialism was minimally invasive prostate surgery.

Mr Cahill has an excellent reputation in general urological diagnostics and treatment as well as his own specialist practice in prostate cancer. His specialist areas of interest include prostate cancer, robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy, general urinary diagnostics and management including benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), haematuria, and general conditions of the scrotum and penis.

For robotic radical prostatectomy his results are equivalent to the best published results in the world for cancer margins, continence and potency. He operates on a very high volume of patients with prostate cancer each year, performing between three and five robotic radical prostatectomies per week.

Explanation

From the outset, Mr Cahill was kind, empathetic, reassuring and highly professional. From the initial consultations, to a phone call at home the night before surgery, I found great comfort in Mr Cahill's manner, advice and understanding. I knew that I was in safe hands, as Mr Cahill's reputation comes before him. He is, after all, one of the country's leading experts in this field. I am thrilled to be able to say that there was no PSA detected whatsoever in my first blood test following surgery. I cannot recommend Mr Cahill highly enough - under both his care, and that of his fantastic team, you will receive the best possible treatment available.

First class treatment and an amazing doctor. His friendly approach made it easier for me to interact with him at a difficult time. He communicated well to me and my family while under his care and his personal visit before my operation made me feel at ease. He explained my treatment plan and procedures well and afforded us time to answer our questions. I could not have hoped for a better doctor. Thank you Doctor Cahill.

After having an initial consultation with Declan mid September I found him to be professional and very friendly who took time to explain my condition and put me at ease regarding the operation I required. I had robotic surgery on the 3rd October 2023 which was successful.Many thanks to Declan and his team who have been very supportive throughout. I can’t recommend them enough.

Explanation

I feel very lucky and privilaged to have been given Declan Cahill as my surgeon/consultant at the Royal Marsden. Declan is very approachable, friendly and explains everything in a down to earth way, with a sense of humour. Prior to my admission I met Declan who considered me an ideal patient for surgery. He wasn't pushy and pointed me in the right direction to research which route I was to take. - radiotherapy or surgery. I'm so glad I took his advice and chose surgery. On the day of the surgery he took the trouble to chat to me on a couple of occasions and his optimism for a good outcomae put me at ease. We met again a couple of times after the operation and each time he was his usual informative and positive self. I had a setback soon after returning home and he phoned me to enquire how I was and to see what he could do to help. I would finally like to take this opportunity to thank Declan and his team for looking after me so well and performing a delicate operation which turned out to be 100% successful.

Explanation

Mr Cahill's team carried out a robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy on me at the Royal Marsden Hospital. I had prostate cancer (Gleason 3+4, T2/T3.) The operation went according to plan and at my 8-week follow-up I was cancer-free. I am extremely happy with the whole process and feel as though I hit the jackpot in being dealt with by his team. Let me explain why.. Throughout it was apparent that Mr Cahill is a lot more than an excellent surgeon. His attention to detail and to improving the patient outcomes is extraordinary. His desire to continuously improve really impressed me. For example, I am a type 1 diabetic and we discussed at length how to manage my blood glucose levels through the procedure and later how to improve the process for future prostatectomy patients with diabetes. Mr Cahill is incredibly outcome focussed and I cannot imagine a better Consultant to deal with a cancerous prostate anywhere in the world! He's the best!

Declan Cahill was amazing from the moment I met him,his emotional intelligence, vast knowledge of the his subject, and his attention to detail were fantastic. Declan spent time explaining every part of the Robotic assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy,which put me totally at ease. The day before surgery he phoned me [Sunday] to give me reassurance,which he did! On the Monday,he came to see me prior to surgery,I walked down to the Theatre and met the rest of his Team,who were outstanding. I was in The Royal Marsden Chelsea for one night and l was looked after very well. On leaving I was given all my post operation procedures and medication,you could not ask for more. A very big thank you to Declan and his Team.
