From the outset Dr Anderson makes you feel welcome and at ease. Shows genuine interest in getting to know the person as well as the medical situation. The approach to assessing and discussing the situation is calm and confident. Importantly there is no sense of being managed or led. One feels totally involved and in control of any decisions that may need to be taken. A credit to the profession.

From the moment we met Mr Anderson we felt we were in the best hands possible in terms of providing professional care with compassion. Mr Anderson is clearly at the top of his field and uses his extensive knowledge to provide information and guidance to his patients, giving reassurance and explaining things in layman's terms. We owe a gratitude of debt to Mr Anderson and would highly recommend him to anyone in need of Urological help/support.

I was pleased with Mr Christopher Anderson as he was very good at listening and answering any questions I had. I had some tests that gave me peace of mind. I shall visit again as I trust his opinion.

I can't say how very grateful I am to this wonderful man. Chris, we're on first name terms, has been looking after me since he discovered my prostate cancer back in July, 2018. Thanks to him and his diligence I was referred to Mr Vincent Khoo, and treatment commenced immediately. My cancer has almost disappeared and my good health restored. Thank you Chris, Forever grateful

Profile

Mr Christopher Anderson is a consultant Urological surgeon with a general Urological practise as well as a specialist interest in renal and prostate cancer. In his general Urological practise he manages a wide spectrum of conditions : urinary infections, voiding and bladder problems, enlarged prostates (BPH), haematuria (blood in urine), circumcision, fertility workup, vasectomy / reversal vasectomy and erectile dysfunction. He has particular expertise in minimally invasive robotic and laparoscopic surgical approaches. Mr Anderson completed his undergraduate work at Stellenbosch and his postgraduate training in Cape Town, South Africa, before taking up a substantive consultant post at St George's Healthcare in 1999. He undertook fellowships to Cleveland, the University of Miami and Detroit in the United States before travelling to the University of Leipzig in Germany to further his training in both renal and prostate cancer surgery. Mr Anderson was one of the first to adopt laparoscopic techniques in urology surgery in the UK. In 2004 he introduced laparoscopic renal cryotherapy, also the first operation of its kind in the UK. He continued to develop this technique and has the largest series with long term follow-up in the country. He was an integral member of the team that pioneered robotic surgery in the UK, introducing the robotic surgery programme to St George's Healthcare in July 2008, and has successfully developed the service as lead robotic surgeon.
