Dr Sridhar and all the support and medical staff I dealt with were excellent. Dr Sridhar himself, has a great bedside manner and is patient and understanding. He really took time before my operation to ensure I understood everything and after the operation he visited me personally to make sure all was ok and to answer any questions. As a surgeon he is first rate, and came recommended to me. My anaesthetist on the day (who was also very personable) also shared his admiration of Dr Sridhar’s expertise.I have no hesitation of recommending Dr Sridhar as a Urologist.

I was greatly satisfied with the advice, surgery and support provided by Doctor Sridhar. I suffered from benign prostate problems that seriously affected my lifestyle and prevented me travelling. I approached Doctor Sridhar based on feedback from other doctors working in the field and my experience was consistent with his excellent reputation. It was clear that Dr Sridhar was well on top of his discipline. He didn't complicate matters but answered all my questions in a straightforward fashion. Of the various possible options he proposed an aquablation procedure. This procedure was relatively new to England but had recently been approved by the NHS because it can have significant advantages over other procedures. I think it was an excellent choice for me. The procedure went smoothly and recovery went well. I am very grateful to Doctor Sridhar for his excellent work.

After reading John’s honest and insightful article about his prostatectomy journey, I was inspired to rethink how we can make recovery smoother and more comfortable for patients. 💡

By combining Retzius-sparing and nerve-sparing techniques with the use of suprapubic catheters, my patients now experience less discomfort and a much faster return to normal life—including continence and s*xual function. 🚀💪
