Mr Anderson was incredibly information, direct and professional. He completely put me at ease and laid out all the options systematically explaining the pro's and con's, and then gave his recommendation. He made it very easy to come to a decision I was happy with and I trusted him completely. On the day of the surgery his bedside manner squashed any nerves or concerns I had, and everything went smoothly.

I was extremely impressed and very happy with the care I received from Mr Anderson; I unreservedly recommend him to anyone undergoing treatment. I was diagnosed with cancer and throughout this difficult period Mr Andreson was superb. During the diagnosis he acted quickly to ensure I understood the extent of the cancer, the prognosis and treatment options. His approach and communication style struck exactly the right balance between compassion and being direct. The administrative side of my care was also seamless, letters and communications were always prompt and easy to understand. In sum, Mr Anderson was a consummate professional throughout my treatment; I am very grateful I was under his care at this very difficult time.

Mr Anderson listened to my concerns regarding my prostate, he gave me reassurance that he was happy with everything he found and that I should see him again in a year.
