Reviews
Chris is straight forward, direct and honest. Thank goodness there is no 'flannel' which makes it easy to trust what he says. As fas as I understand his technical/medical ability is outstanding. He demonstrated strong responsibility for my illness, with further investigations and follow - ups.
Mr Anderson has been very thorough in his review of my prostate health and provided the a robust analysis of the test results including calling a panel of doctors to provide different views on MRI results. He continues to monitor the situation and I know that I am in good hands.
Mr Anderson is very personable and kind.
Keep it up Mr Anderson.

Christopher Anderson has been a fantastic consultant. He originally saw me 10 years ago when I was diagnosed with renal cancer. He treated me successfully (by removing the tumour) and his expertise and care at that time and in my subsequent annual checkups have been brilliant. I cannot speak too highly of him.
Mr Anderson is friendly and very professional and explained my condition to me in detail.
Very informative and understanding across my experience with Dr Anderson.

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.

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.
