Mr John Henderson

Mr Henderson was appointed as a Consultant Urological Surgeon to Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust in 2016. Since his appointment, he has performed the first robotic nephrectomy (kidney removal) and daycase HoLEP (laser prostatectomy) in Gloucestershire. The men’s health charity Robocap invited him to be a trustee and he has promoted their work on BBC Radio Gloucester and across social media. Mr Henderson has published widely in journals, written book chapters and presented around the world at conferences. He has accepted invitations to chair conference sessions, peer review papers, teach as faculty on courses and sit on the BAUS Section of Endourology Committee. Mr Henderson has an ongoing interest in research, and recruits patients to clinical trials. He runs educational evenings for GPs and has written guidelines for the Gloucestershire Clinical Commisioning Group (CCG). He is an examiner for the Royal College of Surgeons. ? A consistent theme highlighted in patient feedback is his listening skills and effective communication, especially when addressing the concerns of anxious patients. Mr Henderson takes the time to thoroughly explain the benefits and risks associated with various treatment options, ensuring that patients are well-informed and empowered to make decisions about their own care. ? Work and three young children occupy most of his time, but he occasionally enjoys golf, kite-surfing, running and strong coffee. With his wealth of experience, compassionate care, and dedication to patient well-being, he is an excellent choice for individuals seeking expert urological treatment and a doctor who values open communication and shared decision-making.
