Mr. Anson is excellent. From my first meeting with him through his completing my ureteroscopy with a Holmium laser he was always extremely knowledgable and consistently clear in providing me with options. Whilst I do not wish kidney stones on anyone (and I have known some pretty bad characters), I unhesitatingly recommend Mr. Ken Anson as the best solution to this miserable condition.
