Reviews
Mr Anderson is a very personable surgeon who listens and carefully explains the procedure and then carries it out with maximum skill and effectiveness. He is someone who inspires trust and delivers.
He is a very experienced professional and very direct and to the point; please ignore his slightly abrupt manner at times as he is very focused on what the patient needs.
I am totally satisfied this doctor. He conducted keyhole surgery which I recover quickly.
Great advantage of him is his PA (Mrs. Anderson). She is very good at what she is doing and reliable and approachable.
This doctor is an expert on Prostate problems and related issues to do with bladders. He is highly experienced and very good to talk to and he listens and gives good advice. I would recommend him highly. He has strong links with St Georg's teaching hospital in Tooting.
Mr Anderson has been treating my mother for the last five years for kidney cancer and we could not ask for a better consultant! Mr Anderson has always very professional and warm towards us and we have always had excellent treatment from him, a very compassionate doctor indeed! oh how wish more doctors/ consultants were like Mr Anderson.
