Mr Webster was appointed as a Consultant Urologist in 2000. From 2002 to 2016, Mr Webster practiced at the Royal Free London NHS Foundation Trust in a team of 15 Consultant Urologists. He performed upper tract laparoscopic, robotic and open surgery in a practice of cancer, stones, and benign disease as well as general adult and Paediatric Urological surgery, both electively and on call. He assisted in developing the service of upper tract robotics and urological laparoscopy for the BCF Trust including nephrectomy, partial nephrectomy, adrenalectomy, pyeloplasty, and renal surgery. At the end of 2016, Mr Webster was asked to transfer to Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust to assist in the development of their renal surgery robotic program. In 2022, Mr Webster stepped a side from full time clinical NHS practice to focus on his private practice but he still has an Honorary Consultant Contract at Oxford where he works on an ad hoc basis to assist their service delivery and advise and teach.
