DR MASSOUD · UROLOGY · CHARTRES & MAINVILLIERS
Dr Walid Massoud,
urologic surgeon.
Dr Walid Massoud is a urologic surgeon in Mainvilliers, near Chartres, in the Eure-et-Loir department of France. He has practised at Hôpital Privé d’Eure-et-Loir since 2017.
He specialises in minimally invasive urologic surgery, encompassing procedures performed through natural orifices or small incisions while pursuing the same therapeutic goals as open surgery.
This principally includes:
- laparoscopic and robot-assisted surgery performed through small abdominal incisions;
- endoscopic surgery through natural orifices, including laser treatment of the prostate (HoLEP), tumours and urinary stones.
When clinically indicated, these techniques aim to reduce surgical trauma, postoperative pain, blood loss, hospital stay and recovery time, without compromising expected functional or oncological outcomes.
