Graduating with his foundational medical degree in India in 2002, he proceeded to undergo specialised training in the North London Deanery as a specialist registrar. His tenure included significant stints at esteemed institutions such as The Royal Marsden and St Bart's Hospital. He later completed research on the enhanced recovery of bladder cancer patients and was awarded his MD for his work by the University of East Anglia.
Mr Banerjee's adeptness extends to a wide array of procedures, including rigid and flexible ureteroscopies, laser stone fragmentation, and surgical interventions addressing urinary symptoms like TURP and intravesical Botox. He displays a pronounced interest in cancer diagnostics, particularly focused on patients with elevated PSA levels and those requiring treatment for haematuria and superficial bladder cancer. Notably, he provides cutting-edge MRI fusion biopsy of the prostate for enhanced cancer detection. His surgical expertise extends to various open and penoscrotal surgeries, including procedures such as hydrocele repair, phimosis treatment, and vasectomy.
He has started various new interventions at Darent Valley hospital such as MRI fusion biopsy of the prostate and Thulium LASER prostate surgery. These procedures are offered in a limited number of hospitals in the NHS and are likely to improve patient outcomes.
Actively contributing to the field, Mr Banerjee is a devoted member of the British Association of Urological Surgeons (BAUS). His commitment to the advancement of urological knowledge extends to his role in the training and supervision of junior doctors, further solidifying his role as a mentor and contributor to the growth of the medical community.
