Biography & Education
About Professor Prasanna (PS) Sooriakumaran
Professor Prasanna Sooriakumaran, globally known as Prof PS, is the Lead for Urology at Cleveland Clinic London and the first UK urologist to become full professor at Cleveland Clinic. He is a world leader in prostate cancer care.
Professor Sooriakumaran is the lead robotic surgeon on the National Institute of Health and Care Excellence (NICE) panel on robotic soft-tissue surgery. Prof PS has held national clinical excellence/impact awards since 2018, given to consultants who show excellence and impact in their care of patients.
Professor Sooriakumaran is the only surgeon to win the University of Surrey’s Alumni Achievement Award for his “significant contributions to society and the field of prostate cancer care”. He was triple nominated for the Crystal Matula Award, awarded to the most promising young academic urologist in Europe. Prof PS also holds over 30 prestigious awards and prizes from international urology and cancer societies for his research and clinical innovations, and was named as one of the top 10 urologists in Britain in a Daily Mail poll of UK urologists asked who they themselves would want their nearest and dearest treated by.
Professor Sooriakumaran specialises in Retzius-sparing robotic prostatectomy, an operation that has far fewer side-effects than the standard robotic procedure in select prostate cancer patients. He is a world leader in this technique and produces world-class outcomes. Results after prostate cancer surgery are strongly related to the training of the surgeon who performs the operation, and Prof PS was trained by the world’s best: global pioneers of robotic surgery at Ivy League’s Cornell University in New York and the Nobel Prize-awarding Karolinska Institute in Stockholm.
Following his exceptional international training, Prof PS undertook a Senior Fellowship at the world-renowned Oxford University where is the only urologist to be made Visiting Professor and to be conferred the degree of Master of Arts by resolution.
