Current Position

Mark Feneley has been a Consultant Urologist since 2000. He was appointed to his present position a Senior Lecturer in Urological Oncological Surgery at the Institute of Urology, University College London and Honorary Consultant Urologist at University College London Hospitals (UCLH) in 2004. This followed from a definitive Consultant Urological Oncological Surgeon position at the Middlesex Hospital and UCLH NHS Trust from January 2003, and prior to that Consultant Urologist with specialist interest in urological oncology at Nottingham City Hospital from 2000.

Mark is Clinical Lead for Bladder Cancer in the North Thames Cancer Network. Clinical practice includes diagnosis and treatment of urological cancers, and pelvic surgery. A recent Preceptorship at The Urological Institute, Mansoura, Egypt, awarded by the British Urological Foundation, gave me valuable additional experience of bladder cancer and its treatment. Current areas of interest include photodynamic diagnosis of bladder cancer, and electromotive drug administration for its treatment. This follows the strategy to develop effective, minimally invasive treatments in urological healthcare.
