I am a patient of Mr. Anderson for the past 3 years and I am extremely pleased with the consultation and care that I have received. He has always explained each step of every procedure that he has recommended that has helped me understand my treatment regime and make decisions. He has always listened to me with great attention, and his reassuring disposition has always given me great confidence in his expertise.

Mr Anderson fully explained my condition to me and illustrated with diagrams. He was meticulous in dealing with me in an overweight condition and ensuring I would be fit for the operation.The operation appears to be wholly successful and I am able to achieve the expectations Mr Anderson explained would occur if I had the operation, Post operation Mr Anderson ensured that I resumed activity asap and filled one with confidence that I was in safe hands. His nursing staff and the anaesthetist were of the highest standard. As a cynical lawyer having had relatives and clients in the Medical Profession I am always concerned about attending hospitals. I was very impressed with my treatment.

Chris takes the time to explain everything so we understand whats going on in a professional but simple manner. We are never rushed and leave totally happy with our care. Not that i would recommend getting any kidney problems, but if you do, he's your man.

I have met Mr. Anderson twice, to receive feedback on post-operative scans after treatment for kidney cancer. He was courteous andstraightforward.

I have found Christopher Anderson to be an excellent consultant. 13 years ago, he diagnosed that I had renal cancer and removed my malignant right kidney. Throughout this process and in the consultations I have had with him since then, I have had complete confidence in him. He is technically excellent, clear in his explanations and kind. I cannot recommend him highly enough.
