Nick Watkin
Email: nick.watkin @stgeorges.nhs.uk

Nick trained in urology at the Royal Marsden and West London rotation and became a consultant in South West London in 2000. He finished his training in Cape Town where he worked for Professor Johan Naude. It was his inspiration to teach reconstructive urology in general and urethral surgery in particular which shaped his future career in the UK. Nick now leads the reconstructive unit at St George’s which provides a regional service for adult genito-urethral surgery.

Working with Professor Gordon Williams encouraged him to visit Addis Ababa and teach urethral surgery and this led to his interest to support UROLINK. Nick joined the committee in 2008 and runs the equipment store. Any consultant who has equipment surplus to requirements can contain Nick and he will arrange for it to be stored, logged and ultimately delivered to Urolink approved centres.
