Mr Matthew Hayes

I live in Chandlers Ford with my wife and three daughters, so I have based my private practice at the Nuffield Health Wessex Hospital although I also see patients at the Spire Southampton Hospital. My NHS practice is at University Hospital Southampton. In addition to my clinical work I am medical director of the Wessex Cancer Alliance, working across both Hampshire and the Isle of WIght and Dorset with a remit to improve cancer services and treatment outcomes for our population. Diseases, Medical Tests and Treatments I have a broad experience in all aspects of general urology for men and women including conditions affecting the kidney, bladder, prostate, penis and testicles. In the NHS I have developed a regional referral practice in complex pelvic and abdominal (particularly retroperitoneal) cancer surgery, having been a consultant in UK practice since 2002. I work closely with colleagues from my own and other specialties to ensure that patients with complex problems are treated by the most appropriate person with the most relevant expertise. I undertake nephrectomy for advanced renal cancer, including vascular and IVC invasion, and lymphadenectomy where indicated. I lead a regional service providing surgery including retro-peritoneal lymph node dissection for men with testicular cancer. I have a medico-legal practice providing expert witness and personal injury services. Having had a broad surgical experience I provide second opinions where patients who would like another perspective on their condition, or who are struggling to understand the decision making, require it.

"Evidence-based care tailored to each patient — taking the time to explain options and shared decisions."
