Mr Christopher Anderson was awarded the iWantGreatCare certificate of excellence in 2025 for delivering outstanding care.
Mr Christopher Anderson is a consultant Urological surgeon with a general Urological practise as well as a specialist interest in renal and prostate cancer. In his general Urological practise he manages a wide spectrum of conditions : urinary infections, voiding and bladder problems, enlarged prostates (BPH), haematuria (blood in urine), circumcision, fertility workup, vasectomy / reversal vasectomy and erectile dysfunction. He has particular expertise in minimally invasive robotic and laparoscopic surgical approaches. Mr Anderson completed his undergraduate work at Stellenbosch and his postgraduate training in Cape Town, South Africa, before taking up a substantive consultant post at St George's Healthcare in 1999. He undertook fellowships to Cleveland, the University of Miami and Detroit in the United States before travelling to the University of Leipzig in Germany to further his training in both renal and prostate cancer surgery. Mr Anderson was one of the first to adopt laparoscopic techniques in urology surgery in the UK. In 2004 he introduced laparoscopic renal cryotherapy, also the first operation of its kind in the UK. He continued to develop this technique and has the largest series with long term follow-up in the country. He was an integral member of the team that pioneered robotic surgery in the UK, introducing the robotic surgery programme to St George's Healthcare in July 2008, and has successfully developed the service as lead robotic surgeon.
I have total confidence in Mr Anderson. He has always been calm and reassuring, making sure that I understand what is needed to deal with the post surgery situation in relation to my kidney issue. All of my questions have been answered patiently and sympathetically. Just the best person to rely upon in challenging times.

Words alone cannot fully capture the exceptional care and attention that Dr. Anderson provided during my grandmother’s cancer surgery. His service was nothing short of impeccable, and his clear, thoughtful approach gave us great confidence. Dr. Anderson is not only an outstanding doctor, but his personable demeanor allowed him to connect with us on a deeper level, making the entire experience that much more reassuring. He embodies the gold standard of medical care and is a true example of how healthcare should be delivered. I wish Dr. Anderson continued success and all the best in his career.

It was a very straightforward experience with Mr Anderson. I had all my reports from NHS, which he went through and got to the bottom of the issue. He then suggested the treatment option and then recommended a consultant who can do it. All in all within the span of two weeks, my issue was resolved.

My consultation was thoroughly enjoyable and informative experience, I was made to feel completely at home. Chris gave a very detailed account of treatment I was about to receive including any potential side effects and risks, putting me completely at ease. His manner was both caring and professional, he spoke to me as an individual not a number, one of the nicest people I met. I am a person renowned for speaking their mind, whether it be bad or good, on this occasion it was good and I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone.

Chris Anderson was very clear in describing the proposed treatment and then everything he had told us turned out to be correct. I had an operation to remove a large tumour together with a kidney and adrenal gland on Monday 7th October and was home again by Friday 11th. During the follow-up process, he has been similarly clear about what to expect, and has referred me to an oncologist, to explore the possibility of a course of immunotherapy. All in all, I have been extremely impressed and very grateful for his skill, professionalism, and kindness.

This doctor is the best experience I've had with the NHS they cannot improve because the care given was and is superb.

Dr Anderson was highly recommended by an Oncologist in the West Country. I was referred to have a Kidney removed. Dr Anderson visited me on the morning of the procedure and each day after that I remained in The Cromwell Hospital. He patiently explained things and answered my concerns. The operation was a complete success and my recovery uneventful. I give Dr Anderson my highest recommendation, both for his undoubted skill and experience and for the manner in which he carries out his work.
