Grupo Hospiten incorporates Dr. Pedro Cabrera Castillo, a urologist with experience in oncological treatment and the practice of minimally invasive surgery, as head of the Urology Service in Tenerife. With this prestigious incorporation, the healthcare group reinforces its portfolio of services for comprehensive and complete care, both for male and female health.
Dr. Cabrera Castillo is a pioneer in the application of laparoendoscopic surgery techniques through a single port (LESS), using a transumbilical approach, which allows surgery without a visible scar. When performed through the navel, the small umbilical incision becomes invisible in a few weeks. This is an innovative surgical procedure in which Dr. Cabrera has one of the most extensive experiences internationally.
In particular, he is a renowned professional in oncological treatments, including bladder, prostate, testicle, kidney and penis cancer, and actively participates in the development of new techniques and forms of treatment for minimally invasive urological surgery.
With more than ten years in practice, after completing his residency and advanced training in Urology at the La Paz University Hospital in Madrid and as head of the Laparoscopic and Minimally Invasive Surgery Unit of the Getafe University Hospital, he has extensive clinical experience in the comprehensive treatment of the most complex urological problems.
Likewise, he has been awarded numerous academic prizes and invited, both in Spain and abroad, to perform surgeries that have been broadcast in real time and to give lectures on single prostatectomy and renal surgery. In addition, his teaching and research side stands out with the publication of numerous research articles, textbook chapters and video presentations in the field of laparoscopic and single-port urological surgery.
From Hospiten, we welcome this specialist who comes to reinforce a wide portfolio of services and specialists of high prestige available to patients who choose and trust the Hospiten Group.
