Mr Anderson has given very professional and considered advice. He has listened, and acted quickly to resolve concerns that I had around my PSA readings. I am happy to recommend him.

I could not be happier with my decision for Chris Anderson to undertake my Kidney removal.
Before the operation he very clearly explained what would happen to my wife and I. He came across as very knowledgeable.
The operation itself was carried out without any complications. Whilst in hospital I saw him every morning. This was unexpected and greatly appreciated.
I have recovered as expected from the operation with no complications.
For me, the communication between consultant and patient has been as good as it could be.

My wife and I have had two meetings with Chris Anderson in connection with the finding of a malignant tumour on my left kidney which came about during a routine back scan,
Mr Anderson explained extremely clearly the implications for a partial nephrectomy which is being planned for later in the year and I approach this operation with the utmost confidence in his ability in regard to this challenging surgery.
He has very good interpersonal skills and a confident and relaxed manner which put us both at ease.

Very clear and direct manner, does what he says he will do, responds to questions with clear answers and when asked for an opinion gave it without hesitation but was also clear that there were alternatives.
Inspires confidence. Should I conclude that I want to take a surgical solution to the problem then I want him to do the work.
