Professor Prokar Dasgupta OBE has treated prostate cancer for more than two decades and pioneered robotic prostatectomy in the United Kingdom. He led the first da Vinci® trial at The London Clinic in 2005. Every treatment option is explained clearly — and the right one is chosen for you.
Prostate cancer is not one disease. The right treatment depends on the grade and stage of your cancer, your PSA, your age and what matters most to you.
For cancer that is small, slow-growing and confined, treatment can reasonably be deferred and the disease monitored instead. That means regular PSA tests, scans and repeat biopsies rather than an operation.
Removal of the prostate through keyhole incisions, carried out by Professor Dasgupta at the da Vinci Xi console. He was the first consultant to establish robotic-assisted prostatectomy in the United Kingdom.
External beam radiotherapy or implanted seeds can match surgery for cure in the right patient. Professor Dasgupta does not deliver it himself — if it is the better answer for you, he will say so plainly and refer you to a specialist colleague.
Used alongside radiotherapy, or where cancer has spread beyond the prostate, to slow the disease by lowering testosterone. Side effects and how long you would need it are discussed openly before you start.
For carefully selected men with a single area of disease, treating the tumour rather than the whole gland can reduce side effects. You will be told honestly whether you are a suitable candidate.
Already been given a plan elsewhere? Your scans and pathology are reviewed again from scratch and discussed at a multidisciplinary team meeting of urologists, oncologists and radiologists.
Whether you have just been diagnosed or are still waiting for answers, a consultation is the fastest way to know where you stand.
Three considered steps from first contact to a clear treatment plan — without rush, without jargon.
