Professional statement

Mr Nigel Parr is a leading consultant urologist and the first to be appointed to Wirral University Teaching Hospital. He has wide reaching experience across the field of urology, but current particular interests relate to prostate, bladder and penile cancer, urinary tract infections and inflammation, infertility and urinary tract stones. He runs a highly respected penile cancer service and frequently receives referrals from outside the region.

Mr Parr obtained his medical qualification from the University of Liverpool. After being awarded a Doctorate in Medicine, he moved to Edinburgh to complete his training and became a lecturer in urology. As consultant urologist at Wirral University Teaching Hospital, Mr Parr introduced a number of new treatments to Merseyside and the North West. He has published more than 70 papers in scientific journals, and either he or his trainees have been awarded 15 research prizes at local, national, and international meetings including the AUA, EAU, BAUS and the Endourology Society.
