Excellent Dr, very reassuring would highly recommend him to anyone who is suffering. He gets down to the bottom of what is wrong.
5
I have known Mr Anson for 10 years, and through that time he has always provided exemplary care on every level.
5
Mr Anson has been treating me for kidney stones since 2013 and in that time have seen him on three occasions. He has always been extremely thorough, and explains each stage of treatment clearly. I trust him with my care implicitly.
5
Mr Anson is very straightforward and open. He is kind, and tactful and deals with potentially embarrassing examinations by talking about them first so making them no longer embarrassing. I think he is very expert, and knows and acknowledges the limits of his experience and expertise. I recommended my husband to consult him and he is pleased he has done so.

Mr Anson is nothing other than my saviour. I have had quite a lot of trouble with kidney stones over the last couple of years and I trust his advice, his opinion and his work wholeheartedly. He is such a lovely man with a great bedside manner and takes time to explain everything in detail to make sure you are fully comfortable with what he is doing, and no question is ever too small. He is very intricate with reviewing blood tests, scans etc and I have full confidence in everything he says. He has helped me greatly, and his PA Abbie is also exceptional and so helpful. He goes above and beyond, and very quickly came into hospital to see me when he wasn’t due to be there when I was admitted as an emergency. Thank you so much for everything Mr Anson!
5
From start to finish Mr.Anson and his team were very helpful and professional in their dealings with me, and nothing was to much trouble.
5
Mr Anson has looked after me for years and has always had and displayed perfect bedside manners. He always explained in great details what he was going to do and never rushed his answers. He is besides being a superb Surgeon also a wonderful human being. I wish more Doctors were like him with his degree of empathy for people.
5
I have seen Ken on a number of ocssions and he has always dealt with my issues perfectly. I was referred to him, as my previous consultant felt he was the best person for the task, and this has proved to be 100% correct.
