Prof. Greg Shaw is a Consultant Urological Surgeon based in London, UK. He graduated from St Bartholomew's Medical College in 1999 and developed a keen interest in prostate cancer while undertaking an MD research degree at St Bartholomew's Hospital, London.

Prof. Shaw began his specialist urology training in North London and was later awarded Fellowship of the Royal College of Surgeons of England. During his time at Cambridge, he developed a strong interest in robotic surgery, which he further honed through his Fellowship.
In his current role, Prof. Shaw leverages his extensive scientific training to provide the latest evidence-based care for patients suspected of having or diagnosed with prostate cancer. His services include the investigation of common urological issues such as blood in the urine, difficulty in urination, raised PSA levels, and urinary tract infections. He is proficient in diagnosing and treating prostate and bladder cancer, employing a variety of biopsy techniques including transperineal and MRI-guided approaches. Additionally, he performs benign prostate surgery and inguino-scrotal surgery.
