Mr Anderson has managed the supervision and management of my increased PSA levels for the past six years and recently carried out a biopsy which identified some cancerous cells in my prostate. Throughout he has provided excellent and clear advice about the diagnoses and the appropriate options for treatment and I would warmly recommend him for his skill and tact.

I have been under the care of Mr Anderson since he diagnosed that I had renal cancer apprx 15 years ago, following which he carried a highly successful operation when my right kidney was removed.
I believe that it is as a result of his excellence that I am here now to write this review.
Mr Anderson has continued to monitor my health since the operation and I cannot speak highly enough of him.

I obtained a consultation with this consultant quite quickly following a urinary Tract Infection. He listened carefully and took full details of my condition and experience. He explained in a clear way the risks and advantages both of further treatment(surgery) and of not pursuing surgery at this time. Following further tests, including an Ultrasound scan, he advised a flexible cystoscopy, which he carried out. The procedure was done sympathetically, and I only experienced post-procedure pain for a short time (a few hours). Subsequently he provided clear and helpful letters to my GP and myself on my condition and the procedure, advised additional medicine after taking account of the medicines I was already on (only Ramipril 5mg daily), and indicated, while advising he saw no need to rush into surgery, he would review me again in 6 months' time.
