Meet Vijay
Dr Vijay Anand is a Senior GP at Acorn Private Clinic with an extraordinarily extensive qualifications profile. Alongside his MBBS (medical degree) and MD in Medicine, he holds two MRCPs (Royal College of Physicians, UK and London), the FRCGP (Fellowship of the Royal College of General Practitioners — the senior GP qualification, one rung above MRCGP), and the DOcc Med (Diploma in Occupational Medicine).
The FRCGP is particularly significant — it's awarded by election to GPs who have made an outstanding contribution to general practice, and is held by a small fraction of UK GPs.
Dr Anand's special interest in occupational medicine means he sees patients on work-related health questions: pre-employment medicals, fitness-to-work assessments, return-to-work planning after illness, and workplace health concerns.
He works across our Cardiff clinics, GMC-registered and HIW-regulated, offering same-week appointments for patients across Cardiff and the Vale of Glamorgan.
