Digital Technology

Since 2023, Professor Prasanna Sooriakumaran has worked with Avegen Health as Lead for Urological Innovation, playing a central role in the development of a dedicated digital health platform designed to support men recovering from robotic prostate cancer surgery. This work reflects a broader commitment to improving patient care beyond the operating theatre, with a focus on recovery, monitoring, and long-term outcomes.
The app has been specifically developed to guide patients through each stage of their recovery, providing structured support, education, and progress tracking following surgery. By combining clinical expertise with digital delivery, it aims to improve patient engagement, enhance understanding of the recovery process, and support better overall outcomes. Feedback from patients has been consistently positive, particularly in relation to the clarity, accessibility, and reassurance the platform provides during what can often be an uncertain period after treatment.

This work has also received professional recognition within the field of urology. The app and its development were the subject of an invited lecture at the British Association of Urological Surgeons annual conference, reflecting growing interest in the role of digital technology in improving surgical recovery and patient experience.
In July 2025, Professor Sooriakumaran was appointed Lead Clinical Advisor in Men's Health for Emerald. In this role, he is involved in the development of next-generation approaches to preventative men's health, using artificial intelligence and data-driven insights to identify risk earlier and support more personalised care. This includes the integration of wearable technology and individual health data to create tailored health strategies that are specific to each patient.
Together, these roles highlight an ongoing commitment to innovation, combining surgical expertise with emerging technologies to improve both treatment and long-term health outcomes for men.

I have now seen Professor PS twice and could not have been more impressed. His expertise is beyond doubt but he also manages to convey important information in a way that is both calming and easy to understand. He is also supported by an excellent team. Indeed, on my recent visit to the LSDC London clinic, his reception manager went out of her way to ensure i could have tests taken the same day.

Prof PS was wonderful to have as my urologist. After an abnormal finding on a whole-body screening, I knew immediately that I wanted Prof PS to review my case. My initial consultation took place over the Christmas period, and I was extremely fortunate that Simmon (PA) managed to schedule a last-minute appointment despite the holiday period. Thanks to this, I was able to see Prof PS promptly and had a follow-up MRI arranged within just 3–4 days, which was especially impressive given the time of year. I am very happy with the excellent service, efficiency, and level of care I received. I highly recommend Prof PS and the team.

Being diagnosed with Prostate Cancer isn't much fun, even when you're told it is low grade stage 2, and shouldn't cause you any problems. Finding out it is actually locally advanced stage 3 is distinctly unsettling! Luckily for me, I only found out the second part by getting myself referred to Prof PS, who removed the offending tumour for me. I cannot praise PS and his team, and the care I received from them, highly enough. He inspired confidence from the moment I first met him, and dealt with my cancer in a very matter of fact, down to earth way, putting me at ease throughout the whole experience.

It was a short but as excellent of an experience as one would hope for when receiving high PSA results. The secretarial team of Prof PS was extremely responsive, including after hours. Prof PS took the matter seriously and head on, without wasting any time. He was also clear in explaining various steps. It meant a lot that he was clearly looking for the best interest of his patient and to get ahead of any problem. 5 stars every step of the way.

Excellent care from Prof PS. I always felt very reassured from my first consultation right through to post-op care. The operation went very well and my rate of recovery is better than expected. Thank you so much Prof PS!

I have to say that my overall experience has been excellent. I went into this procedure full of concern mainly due to the fact that I am still relatively young at age 51 and Prof Prasanna directed me towards the right procedure for my condition of an enlarged prostate. I have undergone an Aquablation procedure and the outcome and recovery has been good. Highly recommended!
