Mr Karyee Chow

I am an accredited Consultant Urological Surgeon based in Manchester. Born and educated in the UK, I graduated from the United medical and dental schools of Guy's and St Thomas', London in 1996 and completed my urological specialist training on rotation in the North West, gaining my experience at the major hospitals in the region. My qualifications also include an MSc from The University College, London where I conducted research into bladder dysfunction, and a research M.D. from the University of Manchester which was awarded after 2 years of laboratory research into the causes of kidney stone disease. In addition to providing a comprehensive range of urological services in the private sector at Spire Manchester Hospital, I work full time for the NHS at a teaching hospital providing expert management for common urological conditions such as urological cancers, kidney, bladder and prostate problems, penile and scrotal abnormalities, urinary tract infections, impotence and erectile dysfunction and sexual disorders. I also deliver a sub-specialist kidney stone service at the Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust including complex stone management, minimally invasive therapies, extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy and a metabolic stone service. My role there also includes the training of medical students and trainee doctors. My research work has been published in peer review journals and I have presented the results nationally and internationally. I am a fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons and a member of the British Association of Urological Surgeons (BAUS), BAUS section of endourology and the European Association of Urology.
