Featured in national media: The Times – Chronic pelvic pain in men (2025)
Mr Neil Haldar was quoted as a urological expert in an article highlighting the growing issue of chronic pelvic pain in men and the role of pelvic floor dysfunction.
“It’s actually surprisingly common in men… the evidence suggests that in many cases there is overactivity of the pelvic floor muscles.”
The article highlighted that many men suffer in silence and that appropriate diagnosis and treatment can significantly improve symptoms and quality of life.

Specialist in complex prostate cancer surgery
Mr Haldar has over 25 years of experience and has performed more than 1,000 prostate cancer operations. He offers both robotic and open radical prostatectomy, which allows me to tailor the surgical approach to the individual patient, including men with previous abdominal surgery, adhesions or complex anatomy.
Expert commentary
Mr Haldar’s expert commentary includes:
“Robotic prostatectomy has transformed prostate cancer surgery, but it is not suitable for every patient.”
“A small but important group of patients are not suitable for robotic surgery and should still have access to experienced surgeons who can offer open prostatectomy.”
“Early diagnosis can allow a wider range of treatment options and may improve the chance of treating prostate cancer while it is still localised.”
