The care I received by Mr Anderson was excellent. He was punctual, polite, made me feel at ease and generally very personable. He took the time to explain the various procedures and results in an easily comprehensive way, but was never condescending. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Mr Anderson to others.

Mr Anderson has been a tremendous help from start to the near completion of my treatment. He has been very understanding, detailed in his explanations, and done everything he could to get me seen as early as possible and operated on as quickly as possible too. He is a very approachable person and offers friendly and impartial advice so the best course of treatment is offered. I have one treatment left to do and I hope that the great work Mr Anderson has done would have rectified my condition so no more damage will be sustained to my organs.

I consulted with Mr Anderson, at Parkside Hospital, regarding recurring lower abdominal pain. He listened carefully to background information I wanted to share, asking questions to gain a full understanding of the problem. Not only was his diagnosis immediately accurate, verified by scans, he also took great care making sure I understood both the mechanism and root cause of the problem. His suggested treatment was efficient and effective. He is pleasant to deal with, reassuringly knowledgable and detailed. The patient’s interests were put first.
