Saw Dr C Anderson on the 5/12/2018 for test results. Very pleasant made me feel at ease, even after waiting some time due to clinic over run and discussing my CT scans with colleague. He is very good at explaining what's going to happen next and when, and when I have had questions I've sent them to his Secretary and he has responded directly to me which is good.

Dr. Anderson not only welcomed me very nicely but asked me how I was, how I was feeling... he explained to me the issue I have, how it works, what to do.. he showed the results of my tests, some graphics, and compared those to others in a book. Really pleasant to talk too, smily, serious and looking at my eyes all the time. I really appreciate this when talking about my health.

I can honestly say, having met Mr Anderson through a number of appointments that his work seems extremely thorough. He instilled confidence in me from day one. He was the lead surgeon for my partial nephrectomy at St. George’s and during my week’s stay in hospital, he followed up my care almost every day. I have since had a meeting with him to arrange a further check-up since my op. He seems to be highly skilled and knowledgeable gentleman and I would not hesitate to recommend Mr Anderson to anyone who requires treatment in his field of expertise.
