Tailored Treatment: Robotic Surgery vs. Focal Therapy

Every patient is unique, which is why Professor Heer is one of only a handful of surgeons worldwide to offer high-volume expertise in both curative surgical treatment available:

• Robotic Prostatectomy: As a UK pioneer in complex robotic surgeries, Professor Heer has successfully performed over 1,000 robotic cases with outstanding audited patient outcomes.

• Day-Case Focal Therapy: For many men, major surgery isn't necessary. Professor Heer is proud to offer focal therapy—a revolutionary, minimally invasive day-case procedure. By treating only the specific area affected by cancer, it protects surrounding tissue and boasts excellent preservation rates for both continence and erectile function, avoiding the bothersome side effects often associated with radiotherapy or full surgical removal.

• Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs): Specialized management for both men and women.
• Urinary symptoms: Rapid assessment and treatment for urinary frequency, urgency, incontinence, getting up at night and reduced urinary stream.

• Male Sexual Health: Compassionate care for erectile dysfunction.
• Family Planning: Safe, expert local anaesthetic vasectomy.
