Dr James Wilson MBBS MRCP FRCR DPhil

I am a specialist in the treatment of lung cancer, mesothelioma and thymoma. I consider myself to be an innovative clinical oncologist. I create a friendly, inclusive environment in my clinics, so that I can work collaboratively with patients to help them to make the best decisions about their health.

My research at the University of Oxford was concerned with how we can best use information from scans to personalise radiotherapy plans for patients. My current research interests are directed towards minimising side effects from radiotherapy, including proton beam therapy, and improving the well-being of patients by limiting radiation doses to normal tissues such as the heart.

I also offer stereotactic radiotherapy for the treatment of localised and metastatic disease. I am the UCLH lead for spinal cord compression and work closely with the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery to offer state-of-the-art treatment for patients with spinal metastases.

I have worked at several of London’s most prestigious cancer centres. I work at University College London Hospital as a Consultant Clinical Oncologist and I’m an Honorary Associate Professor at UCL. I am a member of the European Society for Radiotherapy and Oncology and an active member of the International Thymic Malignancy Interest Group.
