John Ford, 69, found his prostate problems dramatically limited his life, until he was offered Rezeum steam treatment at Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.

John said: “I was becoming anti-social – we turned down lots of invitations to go to things. In the end, I opted for this procedure – it was minimally invasive, with no side effects, and extraordinarily quick.
