Mr Ayman Ali is a Consultant Urological and Robotic Surgeon at the Royal United Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust in Bath, where he has led the introduction and development of the robotic urological surgery programme since his appointment in April 2023.

He is highly invested in minimally invasive urological surgery, having undertaken advanced fellowship training across Europe, including at Heidelberg University in Germany, the Royal Surrey NHS Foundation Trust, and Portsmouth University Hospitals. This extensive advanced training enables him to offer the latest minimally invasive surgical techniques.

In addition to his expertise in robotic surgery, prostate cancer surgery and prostate cancer diagnostics, Mr Ali provides comprehensive care across the full spectrum of urological conditions. He has expertise in the management of benign prostate enlargement, offering medical, endoscopic and minimally invasive treatments to improve urinary flow and bladder emptying. He also specialises in the minimally invasive treatment of urinary tract and kidney stones, including ureteroscopy and laser stone fragmentation and removal, where appropriate.
