Mr Roux operated extremely successfully on my prostate to reduce its size, so I could pass urine much more easily. He explained everything clearly and carefully. Another distinguished urology surgeon recommended him to me as a "safe pair of hands", which apparently is high praise

I cannot recommend Mr Roux highly enough. My entire experience under his care has been fantastic and I couldn’t ask for more. He is a brilliant communicator and explains everything pre and post surgery with care and professionalism.
