Mr Yee chan urology surgeon

Mr Yee Chan has been using the da Vinci robotic system to perform minimally-invasive precision surgery for cancers of the prostate and kidney since 2005. He has extended the field of surgery using the robotic system to areas including complex reconstructive procedures, reimplantation of ureter, surgery for strictures in ureter, and pyeloplasty. He is one of the leading practitioners in this advanced technology.

Whilst Mr Chan was in the UK, he witnessed a laparoscopic radical nephrectomy (removal of a cancerous kidney through key-hole surgery) which was the earliest form of laparoscopic surgery in urology. As he understood that minimally invasive surgery would have a major role in the field of urology in the future, he went onto learn the skills of laparoscopic surgery upon his return from the UK.  

Mr Chan continues to retain his interest in other areas of urology and these include treatment of benign prostate enlargement,  kidney stones and investigations of blood in the urine (haematuria). He has a special interest in minimally-invasive treatment of bladder outlet obstruction using the Urolift device. He also has extensive treatment of kidney stones using the latest laser technology.surgery in urology. As he understood that minimally invasive surgery would have a major role in the field of urology in the future, he went onto learn the skills of laparoscopic surgery upon his return from the UK.
