    Prof. Caroline Moore is a distinguished Senior Clinical Researcher at University College London and an Honorary Consultant Urological Surgeon at University College Hospital. She specialises in the detection, surveillance, and treatment of prostate cancer, employing an MRI-led approach to enhance patient outcomes.

    After completing her medical training within the London Deanery and University College London, Prof. Moore embarked on her thesis work in 2002. She was awarded her MD in 2007 for her pioneering research into 'Photodynamic Therapy for Prostate Cancer'. Notably, she became the first woman in the UK to be appointed as a Professor of Urology and currently serves as the Head of Urology at University College London. In 2012, she was honoured with the position of Honorary Consultant Urologist at University College Hospitals Trust, where she leads a dedicated team focused on prostate cancer diagnosis, active surveillance, and focal therapy.

    Prof. Moore and her team are at the forefront of research and clinical trials, having received numerous accolades, including the prestigious BMJ Research Paper of the Year in 2019. They have delivered the highest number of focal treatments for prostate cancer, with Prof. Moore personally treating 800 men using this innovative approach. She also mentors urologists globally in this technique and has lectured extensively on the use of MRI for prostate cancer screening.

    Prof. Moore's commitment to advancing urological care and her significant contributions to prostate cancer treatment make her a leading figure in her field. Her ongoing research and clinical practice continue to shape the future of urology, providing hope and improved outcomes for patients worldwide.

    Frequently asked questions

  • What are the common symptoms that your patients tend to present with?

    Many of them come to me to talk about prostate cancer risk assessment.

    Some people come with urinary tract symptoms such as having trouble urinating, excessive urination at night or having to rush to go to the toilet, among others.

    A good proportion of men come with a diagnosis of prostate cancer and they're not sure what to do about it. They come to me to discuss their condition and get a second opinion, look at further risk analysis and talk about the various options that I could offer.

  • What are the treatments that you're able to offer your patients?

    One of the main things that I do is prostate cancer diagnosis using MRI to assess prostate cancer. I offer an MRI-targeted biopsy service for significant prostate cancers.

    In terms of management options for men with prostate cancer, I do active surveillance and focal therapy and also quite a bit in decision-making by supporting them to make critical decisions about which localised prostate cancer treatment they want.

    I lead the prostate MDT for The Harley Street Clinic.

  • What are your areas of sub-specialist interest?

    My main areas of subspecialist interests are prostate cancer diagnosis and assessment, decision support, active surveillance and focal treatment for mostly localised prostate cancer.

    In addition to the above, I also focus on younger patients, young adults or adolescents who present with primary problems that need assessment.
