In an emergency the clinic can even accommodate shock wave lithotripsy on the same day of the patient’s initial appointment. Operations are carried out at its sister hospital, The Princess Grace Hospital, which houses the latest endoscopic equipment, including advanced endoscopic cameras and laser technologies to allow even the most complex stone to be accessed and extracted.

The Kidney Stones Clinic offers same-day appointments with a consultant in order to establish a diagnosis as soon as possible. Same-day scans are available within its state of the art diagnostics centre, with an experienced uroradiologist ready to report on the scans right away. It is one of only two independent sites in London to offer onsite extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL), a minimally invasive technique that avoids the need for surgery and patients can go home within an hour or two of the procedure.

During the initial appointment, Mr Anson discusses the patient’s symptoms and entire medical history before deciding on the most appropriate investigations to be carried out.
