South Terrace Urology

After formal training in the General Urological Fellowship in Australia I gained further specialised training in the Fellowship position at UT south western Dallas, Texas. This gave me greater exposure to major urological surgery, prosthetic surgery and bladder reconstruction.

Since 1989 I have been a Consultant Urologist at the Royal Adelaide Hospital and Hampstead Centre and have provided broad general urological services to rural South Australia and to Broken Hill. At South Terrace Urology I have offered a general urological service to include the treatment of urological cancers including prostate, kidney and testes as well as the management of stone surgery and lower urinary tract symptoms in men and women.

r Darren Foreman completed his schooling, university studies and surgical training in Adelaide. He spent a Fellowship year in Perth, and commenced work as a Urologist at South Terrace Urology in 2007.

Dr Foreman visits Whyalla and Port Lincoln Hospitals on a monthly basis and is able to offer remote telemedicine consultations for appropriate referrals. He is involved with training and education of Medical students, Urology trainees and GPs, and recently authored chapters in a Medical Student textbook.

Dr Foreman participates in Clinical research trials at the Repatriation General Hospital, and is on the Steering committee of the South Australian Prostate Cancer Clinical Outcomes Collaborative (SA-PCCOC) which manages the largest prostate cancer database in Australia. He sits on national advisory boards for pharmaceutical companies, and attends regular Multi-Disciplinary Team (MDT) meetings where complex cancer cases are discussed with other colleagues including Medical, Radiation Oncologists, Radiologists and Pathologists, in the effort to give patients the best available treatment.

He manages all Urological conditions including cancers, lower urinary tract disorders, stones and local anaesthetic vasectomy, and has an interest in minimally invasive techniques including LASER stone surgery, LASER prostate surgery, and laparoscopic renal surgery.

Dr Andrew Fuller is a graduate of the Adelaide University Medical School. He
completed his basic and advanced surgical training in South Australia.

After becoming a Fellow of the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons, he was
accepted for further training in minimally invasive urologic oncology and
endourology at the University of Western Ontario, Canada. This is one of a few
centres worldwide accredited by the Endourological Society. In particular, he
gained expertise in laparoscopic and robot-assisted prostate and kidney surgery
as well as the surgical and medical management of complex urinary stone
disease, lower urinary tract symptoms and erectile dysfunction.

Dr Peter Sutherland trained in Australia, the USA and the UK and has since gained over twenty five years experience in Urological practice. He is currently the Head of the Urology Department at Adelaide’s largest teaching hospital, The Royal Adelaide. With the University of Adelaide’s Department of Surgery, he manages a team of researchers offering trials of new drugs and techniques for many Urological conditions.

Dr Sutherland’s private practice in Adelaide incorporates Australasia’s first accredited stand-alone Urology Day Surgery. His particular areas of interest are prostate cancer, laser treatment of prostatic obstruction, kidney disease and erectile dysfunction.

Dr Sutherland was instrumental in leading the first surgical team to introduce robotic radical prostatectomy into the Australian public health system. He has performed over 1000 da Vinci procedures and has been the leading mentor for Australian and New Zealand Urological surgeons whilst providing Robotic Fellowship training at The Royal Adelaide Hospital.

As a result of his dedication to research and education for erectile dysfunction, Dr Sutherland is an active member of a number of national advisory boards in Australia.
