Ever so grateful to all the team at Manchester Urology, I have today left the following review:
Manchester Urology – A team of highly skilled Urological surgeons who collectively cover all aspects of Urology. This is extremely beneficial especially in cases such as mine.
My journey – to recovery – started with the Mr. Ben Grey who in no time managed to pinpoint the area of concern and even though it was somewhat of a serious situation, from the onset was most reassuring that it was a something which can be dealt with. He performed a procedure which identified that the problem I had, required extra surgery. Without hesitation he referred me to Mr. Steve Bromage as he considered him to be better placed to deal with my particular condition. I still hear his assuring words “you will be in the best possible hands – I would send my own family member to him if need be” a clear sign that Mr. Grey and his team put “The Patients Wellbeing First”.
Mr. Steve Bromage who performed major surgery, is highly professional, extremely skilled and constantly ever so re-assuring. His extraordinary compassion makes oner think that you are his most important patient. When there is a “setback” it is palpable that he feels hurt equal to the patient’s concern. When there are good results, his genuine joy is tremendously observable .
Along the recovery route – a situation arose which gave suspect to a possible serious condition. For this I was referred to Professor Sinclair, a most proficient and talented surgeon who performed a biopsy with great consideration re-assuring me that whatever the outcome was – it’s something that can be dealt with.
I have no reservations in recommending Manchester Urology who work together as a remarkably proficient and skilled team with great kindness.

I found this amazing man - Andrew Sinclair when I googled for help with my husband's urology problems. He has literally turned our lives around. My husband was despairing that he would ever live a "Normal" life again. Now he does !
We have Professor Sinclair to thank for this.

Rezum procedure through Stephen Brown April 2022

Now in my 60s I suffered with several post bedtime visits to the loo and increased urinary infections that were making life more uncomfortable, despite my creeping like a Ninja, my wife was also being woken up and there was the threat of being banished to another bedroom.

Was referred to Stephen Brown and met at the Alex in Cheadle at a time to suit me. After a chat, thorough check up and other testsover the following weeks, it was decided the prostate was enlarged and two solutions offered. I opted for a procedure called Rezum which has less side effects from steam being injected.

I was admitted 20 April 2022 and came home later that day with a catheter, which was uncomfortable but was removed a week later. There was some pain for a few weeks after whilst the prostate was being affected by the steam but I had been warned about this, and these were preferable side affects to the other operation which would have meant a two day stay in hospital. Within a few days I was able to visit the theatre and sit through Les Miserables with my bags strapped to my hip so there was no embarrassment during the performance.

At the time of writing, 31 May 2022,my symptoms have noticeably improved and I am able to sleep better, and do not have to plan walking and theatre trips around loo visits, my wife is happier too!

The staff at the Alex were brilliant whilst I was there and I was even able to have several hot chocolates and an extra panini for being good!

I paid for this myself to speed matters ( about £5k in total) and it was worth it to have access to such caring, knowledgeable, professional and friendly people.

Many thanks, Graham Moore-Grundy

As soon as you meet Mr Stephen Brown your get that feeling of calmness and upmost professionalism. He sorted my prostate that had troubled me for some time. I was worried about having an op, but Mr Brown put me at my ease.I am now firing on all cylinders, after his skill carried out the procedure with the minimum of trouble to myself. This was all backed up by the staff at The Alex. Credit to them also. Thank you again Mr Brown for a job well done. You can describe me as "Satisfied Customer of Wilmslow"! Top marks and thanks again.

Mr Modgil was professional, made me comfortable, was confident in his assessment which instilled confidence in me. His clinical recommendation was perfect and I only required one follow up due to his assessment/diagnosis and management plan.

After years of suffering the indignity of incontinence due to prostate cancer & radiotherapy Professor Sinclair & his team performed a life changing procedure on the 2nd March. Today Mon 16th May following surgical recovery & device activation my quality of life has been restored. Words cannot express enough my gratitude to Prof Sinclair & his team for this gift of life. You guys are truly heroes.

Dr Modgil explained from our first meeting what he believed the problem to be and after testing it was exactly what he said. This makes a huge difference. Having someone who was an absolute expert made me feel great. He was polite, thorough and made me feel like I was dealing with an expert. The operation was fantastic and the healing process was very easy with almost no pain. He has been fantastic from start to finish. I would recommend him personally to anyone and would be happy to.

Dr. Modgil was a very competent surgeon that combines expertise and a willingness to listen and discuss and the staff was always very caring and kind. They ensured I had a smooth prep, surgery, and follow-up. I am glad I chose him for my varicocelectomy surgery.

Professor Pearce put me at ease immediately with his calm professional manner, he was considered and personable and I felt reassured by his knowledge and diagnosis.
Thank you.

Mr. Vaibhav Modgil was Initially very easy to get an early appointment and very calm clear and understandable explanation of possible issues. Extremely efficient and understanding in carrying out relatively simple procedures. Builds rapport and confidence quickly. He was recommended to me by another consultant and he lived up to what had been a glowing recommendation in all respects.

When I had my health problem and met many consultants in Urology it was obvious to me that they all had very high respect for Prof. Andrew Sinclair. It is not just his surgical skills, that of a ‘magician’ that changed my life for the better via a urethroplasty for a urethral stricture, but the aftercare I had that made me very comfortable to attend his clinic. My partner tells me that whenever I come out of Prof’s clinic, she sees a happier man.

I requested referral to Mr. Modgil privately to expediate my diagnosis and treatment for pyronies disease and erectile dysfunction. I found him extremely helpful and he explained my best solution to my issues was a titan touch penile implant. I agreed surgery as soon as it was practical for me and the process was dealt with very professionally indeed. My history is that I am a 53 year old who around 3 years ago started to have symptoms of ED so was medicating with Viagra and this in general worked but on a particular occasion of having sex with my wife i had a trauma to my penis and this trauma I now understand was possibly the onset of my pyronies (a bending of the penis for those that don’t know). I went to see another consultant first not long after the incident and was advised to wait a while until I was in the stable phase (around 12 months) with lockdown this was around 2years in total and my condition had definitely got worse. So I went to Mr Modgil and after examination he advised my best course of action was the implant. And the sooner I got this done the better as the longer you leave pyronies (and ED for that matter) you will get shortening to the size of your penis (and no guy wants that). It’s a big operation for any guy to undertake I will not try and play it down but I am only 10 weeks post op and have been sexually active since week 6. My wife has a smile on her face again (well when we have sex at least) my housework skills will have to improve 10 fold for it to be at any other time. Anyway my advice to ANY guy who is worried about ED and or Pyronies disease is get checked out as soon as possible.

Thank you to Mr Modgil for the exemplary service. He explained my condition fully and was thorough in his examination and diagnosis. I am fully satisfied with my experience and glad I was able to be treated by such a honest and professional person.

Following an ultrasound scan which found a testicular lump, I underwent two operations in 2021. It has been one of the most difficult periods of my life.

In addition to the operations performed by Mr Tang, I have had a number of consultations with him. He has been clear and confident in his advice and action plan, and optimistic about the outcome. He is in addition personable, and supported by a responsive PA and brilliant professional staff at the Alexandria Hospital.

I owe him, and the hospital staff, a great deal.

Thank you.

Professor Sinclair was so thorough and super efficient whilst treating my urinary tract problems. He is very kind and considerate and I would definitely recommend this lovely gentleman

An easy 5 ears in every category. Very professional, competent and reassuring.
Expertly performed my revision circumcision.
I am very please with the outcome.

My father was referred to see Professor Sinclair for what we believed to be a small routine procedure. Professor Sinclair could not have been more thorough and arranged for my Dad to have a series of test’s and scan’s. Upon the results Professor Sinclair identified a completely different problem. Although we were very alarmed by the results, Professor Sinclair immediately he made us feel in the very best of hands. Different treatment options were discussed at length and throughout the whole time he genuinely could not have been more supportive, professional and understanding. My Dad has now had all the treatment and thankfully now feels well on the road to recovery. Thanks to Professor Sinclair being so thorough, the problem was identified early enough for it to be dealt with. For this we will be forever thankful to him and simply could not recommend him more highly.

I am 72 years of age and a patient of Manchester Urology, undergoing a Laparoscopic Total Nephrectomy operation in 2019.
Amazingly, my brother Bernie developed a condition that also required similar surgery just a few weeks after me. We both received surgery by Mr Stephen Bromage and were also supported magnificently by Mr Banji Adeyoju

I have been an active Rower all my adult life and so has my brother. My club, Northwich Rowing Club has a retired Masters group of circa 15 members of various levels of fitness.
Last week, I was the Bowman (and steersman) in a Quadruple Scull last week for a full 11k outing.

At Stroke position was my bother Bernard, and in the No 3 position was yet another recent patient of Steven Bromage. So 3 of the crew are able to train and row thanks to Stephen’s good work and that of his colleagues.
One other crew member, who is returning after a heart attack a couple of years ago, complemented what we could claim to be the ‘Manchester Urology Rowing Crew’.

The boat went surprisingly well, with control, balance, rhythm and technique that the racers would aim to deliver.

We owe many, many thanks to Manchester Urology and are posting this note to give confidence to those who find themselves in a similar position that Steve, Banji and their colleagues at Manchester Urology are there to provide skilled and professional surgery.

You may even end up in a rowing crew!

Had two surgeries done, very quick from start to finish, everything went perfect from consultation to surgery to follow up couldn’t be happier!

I just wanted to write a thank you note for my prostate treatment nearly 4 months ago. The Rezum procedure has worked for me very well indeed. I stopped my tamsulosin at the 3 month post op date and can still pee like a 20 yr old once again! Much better than I expected to be honest. The nocturnal loo visits have dropped to a single one at most, and life has returned to normal!
Despite the difficult first 2 weeks post catheter I would definitely make the same choice again. Thank you for your help- it has given me back my life.
I hope you remain well in these difficult times.
Kind Regards

Due to the COVID pandemic, the planned procedure for removal of a bladder stone (following assessments and scans at Trafford General in November 2019) was understandably delayed. During the following few months, the condition became increasingly uncomfortable. As a result, I explored the possibility of admission to BMI Alexandra Hospital for the procedure to be completed.
I benefited greatly from the high levels of expertise, care, support and advice from Mr Tang and his team.
I wish to praise Mr Tang and his team for attending to my medical and health needs so that I am now free from discomfort. Many thanks!

I had a prostate and bladder operation earlier this month at the Alexandra Hospital. The operation was carried out by Mr Stephen Brown. I had had a similar prostate operation 13 months before done by someone else. I can’t thank Mr Brown enough for what he has done. I had no problems at all, which is different from my nightmare experience previously. I found Mr Brown to be friendly and professional both prior to the operation and since.
The staff in the hospital looked after me very well and were also very friendly."

Dear Professor Sinclair,
Some time ago, you diagnosed my greatly enlarged prostate gland. I underwent a TURP operation under your
care and since that time, I have enjoyed good health for which I am truly grateful.
The comforting aspect for me was the follow up attention during which I had scans and a cystoscopy to ensure
there were no underlying problems.
I thank you sincerely for your friendliness, sympathetic care and professionalism.
Hope you are keeping well,
Kind regards.

Dear Professor Sinclair,
Further to my recent follow up consultation. I would just like to thank you for the care and professionalism you showed me throughout my treatment.
You put me at ease immediately at our first meeting, when I was quite concerned, explaining the surgery I required and putting my mind at rest that a successful outcome would be achieved, which happily has proved to be the case.
Thanking you once again,
Kindest Regards,

As a result of the Urolift procedure I no longer have to take the prescribed daily medication for my prostrate and my general well-being has greatly improved in terms of undisturbed sleep (not waking up to go to the toilet 4/6 times night) improved social activity and concerns of not able to urinate due to my enlarged prostrate.
I chose the UROLIFT procedure as it could be undertaken as a day patient with no side effects.

I’m sorry it’s taken me so long to write to thank you for my excellent care having been referred to Manchester Urology and seeing you on the day lockdown began!
Your and your secretary’s contact has been reassuring that the system is being made to respond.
Thank you again for your skilful and thoughtful care and your positive approach to my issues.
Yours sincerely

Dear Professor Sinclair
I was on your list yesterday for a transperineal prostate biopsy. I wanted to put on record my appreciation of how well the whole event was managed.
On arriving at hospital I was nervous but with the warm atmosphere created by yourself and your excellent assistants I found myself very relaxed.
I would like to offer my sincere thanks for your care and consideration.
I felt no pain throughout the procedure and have had no after effects since.
Kind Regards

I would highly recommend Mr Modgil, he is obviously very experienced in his field of expertise which I found reassuring. He also has a manner which makes you feel at ease.

Handled brilliantly throughout the Covid-19 pandemic - Mr Ben Grey was contactable throughout to answer any of my questions or concerns. He explained everything clearly in a way I could understand. I would highly recommend Mr Grey & his team and would see him again without hesitation.

Many thanks - the [MS Teams] session with Prof Grey was excellent.

I was very pleased with the outcome of my kidney and bladder stone treatment undertaken by Ben Grey in October 2017. Follow up kub x-rays in May 2018 and May 2019 both all clear. Many thanks

It was by very good fortune that I was referred to Manchester Urology with a PSA, which was marginally raised from its cruising level. The clinical (Prof. Pearce), MR, bone scan and ultrasound-guided biopsy tasks (Mr Burke) were all performed very smoothly, to reveal a T3a cancer.
A radical robotic prostatectomy was performed by Mr Brough. The whole experience was unbelievably smooth and comfortable, thanks not only to the surgical expertise, but also a superb anaesthetic (Dr Yuill), from which I awoke without any ill-effects whatever. I was discharged the following morning, sporting a catheter and anti-clotting injectables, neither of which were a problem. The nursing care at Stepping Hill was exemplary.
Immediately after the catheter was removed after 10 days, I had good urinary flow and control, thanks to Mr Brough's experience and surgical expertise. There was a useful counselling group session a few days later, again at Stepping Hill.
As it happened, the post-op PSA crept up slightly after a few months. A timely referral for radiotherapy (Dr Logue) has reduced the PSA to undetectable levels. Within the Manchester Urology group there is a reassuring degree of subspecialisation, such that each task is performed by an appropriately experienced expert. Any queries along the way are answered promptly and effectively. From my experience, this model could not have been bettered.
