Reviews
Professional and friendly, and took time to answer questions.
What can i say about Mr Anderson and his team. The care and treatment they gave me were second to none. At a very low point in my life ( cancerous growth on the kidney after having one in the bowl removed) he made me feel totally at ease and not all was lost. At no time during all the treatment/surgery did i feel unsure on what he or his team were doing. the operation was done by robot with Mr Anderson controlling it and after a long operation i came out the other end tumour free with minimal scaring.
Mr Anderson, Yanee and the rest of the team are a true credit to the NHS. And i would have no doubt in recommending them to any one.
They make you feel like your there only patient.

I think that Mr Christopher Anderson is a first class doctor, he has opperated on me and the results could not have been better, also the staff that have been working with the doctor are also first class, it is only through his work that I am still hear to write this feedback. 10/10 A++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Mr Anderson carried out a thorough investigation and diagnosis of my condition and how to deal with it. I felt confident in the process and results. I like to understand things in some detail and he answered all my questions.
Suggestion: I felt able to ask questions but, with those less confident, he could ask if they would like more detail.
Mr Christopher Anderson is a pleasant, understanding and caring man. On all occasions he had the ability to listen and reassure me of what is going on.I would recommend him highly to anyone needing medical advice.
