Birmingham Prostate Clinic – webcasts

We have produced a series of webcasts to enhance the information we provide on the Birmingham Prostate Clinic website.

Our webcasts provide an opportunity to see and hear our clinicians and the perspective of patients. Evaluation has shown patients find it helpful to hear about assessments and treatments from people who have experienced the same conditions and treatment themselves.

• Dr Richard Commander – nerve-sparing prostatectomy
  
  Prostate cancer patient Dr Richard Commander and his wife Vicky discuss how they found the right treatment for the best overall outcome.

• David Lehane – suprapubic catheter
  
  Mr Lehane talks about the suprapubic catheter - an innovative new technique which meant he could leave hospital free from a urethral catheter.

• Peter Hale – PCA3 assessment
  
  Mr Hale and consultant urologist Alan Doherty discuss the PCA3 diagnostic test for prostate cancer, and how it helps to achieve a more accurate, individual diagnosis.
