Professor Vincent Tse

Professor Vincent Tse is a highly regarded urological surgeon and a dedicated member of the Kalix ecosystem. With a focused subspecialty practice in urinary incontinence and urethral reconstruction, Professor Tse brings a level of operative depth and diagnostic rigour that is rare in Australia. He embodies the Kalix principle of subspecialised, precision care – offering patients access to advanced surgical options that few centres in the country can provide.

Bio and Qualifications

Professor Tse is one of Australia’s most experienced surgeons in the management of urinary incontinence and urethral disease. He has over 25 years of experience in this field. In the last 12 years, he has also accrued experience in robotic reconstructive surgery in both men and women, covering complex urinary incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, fistula repairs and specific lower urinary tract disorders. His practice is built around functional outcomes and surgical precision. He has been an invited speaker and surgeon both locally and internationally over the last 20 years, and has edited two books on urinary incontinence and pelvic floor disorders and more than 200 abstracts and peer-reviewed journal publications.

Approach to Care

Professor Tse’s clinical philosophy is centred on thorough assessment before any treatment decision is made. He performs video urodynamics in-rooms, giving him a precise functional picture of each patient’s bladder and urethra before recommending surgery. This diagnostic rigour, combined with access to the full range of continence and urethral procedures, means patients are not funnelled toward a single solution but matched to the right one.

“Incontinence and urethral conditions have a significant impact on quality of life, and they are often undertreated or managed without the full picture. My approach is to understand exactly what is driving the problem, then offer the most appropriate intervention; whether that is conservative management or a reconstructive procedure.”

His operative breadth is a key differentiator. Few surgeons in Australia perform urethroplasty, artificial urinary sphincter implantation, autologous fascial sling surgery, and bladder Botox within a single subspecialty practice. Alongside this, his 12+ years of robotic reconstructive experience means patients with complex incontinence or pelvic organ prolapse have access to minimally invasive surgical options that require a high level of specialist training to perform well.

Clinical Interests

Professor Tse’s practice is focused on the lower urinary tract, with particular expertise in:

• Urinary Incontinence (stress, urgency, and mixed) in men and women
• Overactive Bladder
• Urethral Stricture
• Post-Prostatectomy Incontinence
• Bladder Neck Contracture
• Pelvic Organ Prolapse
• Complex lower urinary tract disorders

Services & Treatments Offered

Why Professor Tse is Essential to the Kalix Ecosystem

• Reconstructive & Functional Urology Subspecialist. Professor Tse offers the full complement of continence and urethral procedures — urethroplasty, AUS, fascial sling, and bladder Botox — within a single subspecialty practice. This combination is available from very few surgeons in Australia.
• 12+ years of robotic reconstructive surgery. Professor Tse is one of a small number of Australian urologists with this depth of robotic experience in both men and women, covering complex incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, and lower urinary tract reconstruction.
• Diagnosis before surgery. Video urodynamics performed in-rooms ensures every operative decision is based on a precise functional assessment, not symptom description alone.
• Complex post-prostatectomy care. Men with incontinence or urethral complications following prostate surgery require a surgeon experienced across both domains. Professor Tse is one of a small number in Australia with this dual expertise.

Filling a genuine gap. Patients with urethral stricture, significant post-prostatectomy incontinence, or complex pelvic floor conditions often cycle through general urologists without access to the reconstructive options they need. Professor Tse provides that access within the Kalix model.
