He further honed his skills through fellowships in minimally invasive and robotic surgery at Saint Augustin Clinic in Bordeaux and the Royal Surrey NHS Foundation Trust in Guildford.

He was then appointed as a consultant urological surgeon at the Royal Surrey NHS Foundation Trust in February 2022. His robust academic background, including multiple postgraduate diplomas in Andrology, Laparoscopic surgery, urodynamics and pelviperineology, a master's degree in biomedical sciences and a fellowship from the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh, provides a solid foundation for his work.

Mr Wissam Abou-Chedid has distinguished himself as a leader in the field, particularly in robotic-assisted surgery and minimally invasive procedures for prostatecancer and benign prostatic enlargement. His exceptional track record is marked by his significant contribution to the volume of surgeries performed, with over 600 cases completed in the last three years alone, making him one of the highest-volume consultants for robotic prostate surgery in the UK during that period.
