Reviews
Chris is an outstanding surgeon and when you need an operation to remove cancer from your kidney Chris is the man to go to. There is no need to do more research. He is direct answers questions clearly and gives you the time you need before making a decision
Mr Anderson comes across as an expert at the top of his game. I believe in his abilities and recommendations
Have only had one visit and everything went well.
A few more options and/hours at Parkside would be helpful. His clinic fills up rather quickly, so getting a follow up is slightly tricky.
Great first impression and very knowledgable.
Chris is an exceptional surgeon. No need to look any further you Chris is at the top of his field.
He has a clear, straightforward business like manner - but with more than sufficient empathy - which inspires every confidence in his expertise. I would have no hesitation in recommending.

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.
