PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE
During my current job as a Consultant Urologist at Guy’s Hospital, I am
responsible to deliver service as a leader in the field of Genito urethral Reconstructive
Surgery and Andrology
During the Fellowship in Robotic Urology at UCH, I received training and gained
experience in many advanced procedures in uro oncology including robotic radical
prostatectomies, robotic extended PLND, robotic partial or radical Nephrectomies and
Nephroureterectomies, robotic pyeloplasties and robotic cystectomies with intracorcopral
urinary diversion.
In addition to the operative workload, during this time I was involved in the delivery of
service in one out-patient clinic per week (SMDT cancer clinic). I also run the delivery of
the clinical service as a senior fellow in the department and coordinated care on the ward
in conjunction with the junior staff and consultants in the department. Finally, I also
participated as a Senior Registrar in General Urology for the point of view of urological
emergencies where I ran the emergency general urology cover in a 1:5 rota
During the Fellowship in Laparoscopic Urology at Royal Surrey Hospital, I
received training and gained experience in many advanced procedures including
8
laparoscopic radical prostatectomies, Lap extended PLND, Lap Nephrectomies and
Nephroureterectomies and Lap pyeloplasties
In addition to the operative workload, during this time I was involved in the delivery of
service in one out-patient clinic per week(prostate cancer clinic). I also run the delivery
of the clinical service as a senior fellow in the department and coordinated care on the
ward in conjunction with the junior staff and consultants in the department. Finally, I also
participated as a Senior Registrar in General Urology for the point of view of urological
emergencies where I ran the emergency general urology cover in a 1:5 rota
During the Fellowship in Reconstructive Urology and Andrology at UCH, I
received training and gained significant experience in many advanced and intermediate
procedures including: urethroplasties of anterior and posterior urethra using BMG,
urorectal fistula repair with gracilis flap, perineal urethrostomies, implantation of AUS,
reconstructive surgery of the bladder and ureters, implantation of penile prosthesis,
glansectomies, partial and total penectomies using SSG, open PLND, inquinal LND with
satorius flap, Nesbit’s and Lue’s procedure, RAP phalloplasties, reversal vasectomies,
micro TESE, penile reconstruction with FTSG etc . for both benign and malignant
diseases.
In addition to the operative workload, during this time I was involved in the delivery of
service in four out-patients clinics per week(male reconstruction, infertility, erectile
dysfunction and general andrology and postop follow up). I also run the delivery of the
clinical service as a senior fellow in the department and coordinated care on the ward in
conjunction with the junior staff and consultants in the department. Finally, I also
participated as a Senior Registrar in General Urology for the point of view of urological
emergencies where I ran the emergency general urology cover in a 1:14 rota. Moreover, I
was 24 hours on call every day for the following emergencies:
1. Priapism patients
2. Patients who have implanted AUS
3. Patients who have implanted penile prosthesis
During my 23 months training in Urology in Greece, I have received surgical
training at Registrar and Senior Registrar level. I have been responsible for the pre- and
post- operative management of the patients in the ward and have been working on a 1:4
on call rota. I have gained experience in dealing with urological emergencies and acute
and chronic urological conditions and I carried out (with and without supervision) a
number of minor, intermediate and major elective and non-elective operations. My
training included all aspects of General Urology including Andrology, Uro- Oncology,
Female Urology and Endourology. I have also assisted in numerous major laparoscopic
procedures including laparoscopic prostatectomy. I have, also, had the opportunity to
participate in the departmental research activities and presented papers at scientific
meetings.

TEACHING EXPERIENCE
As a military medical officer I was responsible for educating nursing and medical staff
and teaching basic medical and first aid skills to the soldiers. In my subsequent posts I
was also responsible for educating junior house officers and nursing staff in the practical
aspects of patient management, such as fluid management, wound care and basic
technique such as catheterization as well as running regular teaching sessions for medical
students during their attachments as well as the run-up to finals. I have also taught on
avoidance of sexually transmitted diseases and narcotic dependency to students. During
my training in Greece, I have also been responsible for educating junior Residents and
nursing staff in the practical aspects of patient management, such as peri-operative
management, wound care and basic urological techniques.
Besides I was running regular teaching sessions for UCL medical students during their
attachments as well as the run-up to finals. In particular, I have taught on the topic
‘critical decisions in urology’ to students in several teaching sessions.
RESEARCH EXPERIENCE
McS Thesis - In men with early prostate cancer, who are treated with primary
HIFU, to what extent can the following outcomes be understood / defined?
The following Research Question was addressed:
In men with early prostate cancer who are treated with HIFU, to what extent can the
following outcomes be understood / defined?
1. What is the PSA nadir at three months post treatment that is associated with long
term freedom from biochemical progression?
2. What is the extent of within patient variability of PSA following HIFU treatment?
3. What is the level of association between post treatment PSA at three months and
post treatment prostate volume?
4. What are the determinants of PSA failure after HIFU treatment?
The following questions have been addressed in a structured, collaborative research
program in which the baseline characteristics, disease severity, conduct of therapy and
biochemical, histological and psycho-social outcomes have been determined in a well
characterized cohort of men.
Part of this work has already been presented in International Scientific Meetings and also
been submitted in International Medical Journals
PhD Thesis - Ischaemic Priapism – pathophysiology and histopathology of the
disease, predictive value of the current diagnostic methods and surgical treatments
Aim of the study I
10
For the first phase of the study we will compare the histopathological results of the
corporal biopsies in patients with ischaemic priapism for more than 24 hours with the
results of the penile Doppler ultrasound scan and MRI scan in order to confine the
predictive value of these imaging studies.
Aim of the study II
In this phase we will compare the early insertion of penile implant with the T shunt and
‘snake’ maneuver technique and their efficacy for the treatment of the ischaemic priapism
according the IIEF-5 questionnaire (pre and post operatively)
Aim of the study II
In this phase we will compare and analyze the histopathology results of the patients with
ischaemic priapism with these of healthy corporal tissue.
