Mr Vijay Sangar was appointed to his Consultant role in 2007 and became Mr of Urology at the Manchester Academic Health Sciences Centre (University of Manchester) in 2018.

Mr Sangar's clinical interests include blue light cystoscopy, circumcision, hydrocelectomy, inflatable penile prosthesis, prostate biopsy, and vasectomy (male sterilization) and its reversal.
