Mr Vinay Kalsi

Professional statement

Mr Vinay Kalsi is respected and distinguished consultant urological surgeon with expertise in kidney stones, urogynaecology, circumcision in both children and adults, hydrocele, and urinary incontinence in both men and women. He is currently practising within Urology Partners at The Parkside Suite Frimley clinic and the New Victoria Hospital Kingston.

Mr Kalsi obtained his first official medical qualification in 1998, successfully completing an MBBS at the University of London. While his areas of interest cover a wide range of urological conditions, he is highly skilled when it comes to stone management and offering minimally invasive techniques such as extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy and ureterorenoscopy.

His experience of functional urology is unique with his three years tenure at the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery, Queen Square, London; treating patients with complex urological and neurological conditions. His impactful research played a pivotal role in the licensure of innovative treatments, specifically botulinum toxin (Botox) injections for neurogenic bladders.

Mr Kalsi's time at Queen Square also granted him unparalleled proficiency in urodynamics and experience in incontinence surgery, experiences he now brings to the forefront in his role at Frimley. Consequently, at Frimley, he is part of the regional pelvic floor MDT, performs video-urodynamics as well as incontinence procedures. Mr Kalsi is the current clinical lead for paediatric surgery at Frimley Health NHS Foundation Trust.

In terms of paediatric urology, his expertise ranges from undescended testes and foreskin problems to blood in the urine and recurrent urinary tract infections. Benefiting from a strong academic background, Vinay has presented his work extensively both nationally and internationally. He has received several awards, including a distinguished research grant from the Multiple Sclerosis Society of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

His contributions encompass over 30 peer-reviewed articles and co-authorship of 10 book chapters. Vinay remains actively engaged in ongoing research, having recently led on a regional prospective review on acute scrotal pain in the paediatric population for the Thames Valley and Wessex ODN.
