About the Department
Stockport urology covers a large geographical area and covers other hospitals for benign and cancer surgery.

We are the largest urology robotic centre in Greater Manchester and do approximately 380 robotic urology cases per year.
Stepping Hill Urology, as part of the Division of Surgery, provides a comprehensive urology service for patients in Stockport, Macclesfield, Tameside & Glossop, and High Peak. Outpatient activity is streamlined through purpose-built urology facilities at Stepping Hill and Tameside, which house all clinics, specialist sessions. Out-patient and day case activity takes place at Macclesfield with satellite clinics at Knutsford and Congleton.
