Mrs Christine Craig

Written by a private patient at Spire Manchester Hospital

Mrs Christine Craig saved my life eleven years ago after local doctors missed/ignored "textbook symptoms. Fact. All these years later I needed her help again (after hitting the same brick walls of the locals) and met exactly the same down to earth genuinely caring person she was then. Mrs Craig listens intently, explains clearly, allays fears and builds confidence like only a highly skilled professional can; there's no ego here. Mrs Craig performed my colonoscopy thoroughly (unlike the locals even though I have a history of bowel cancer!) without drama and discussed her initial findings immediately afterwards, in person. This lady is everything one could wish for . I cannot recommend Mrs Christine Craig highly enough; she's a Diamond! Eternally grateful. Mrs C Waller and family.

I came to Mrs Craig for a second opinion and I am SO glad I did. What a wonderful, thorough and knowledgeable lady. I was listened to, and made to feel very comfortable at every stage of our consultation. I wasn’t rushed and was actually given a diagnosis when several other doctors had missed it. Over a years suffering all explained in an instant. I have left my appointment with all the tools to get better and lots of recommendations as to help my situation. I am looking forward to having a better quality of life and am extremely grateful to Mrs Craig. Thank you so much

Saw Mrs Craig at TGH had an op in January at MRI and went back today to discuss my progress at TGH, Mrs Craig is a wonderful down to earth person who I feel has got the professionalism to talk to about anything regarding bottoms! She has really made a difference to me and the world would be a much better place if there were more people like her God Bless Mrs Craig xxx

Mrs Craig changed my life for the better no question and no doubt. Her honesty, knowledge and professionalism put me at ease instantly and I trust her and her advice implicitly. I could not have been in safer hands which made my decision to have a Subtotal Colectomy in August 2022 an easy one. The surgery went well and the personal caring side of Mrs Craig straight after my surgery was truly heartwarming to myself personally and also to my husband. Unfortunately about 18 months later the disease had spread (something I was told could happen) but I had faith that Mrs Craig would know exactly what the best thing for me would be going forward. We decided to go ahead and have a Proctectomy which meant removing the anus and rectum and I can honestly say it’s the best decision I ever made ! The surgery went extremely well and I recovered quickly with no complications at all and once again the personal aftercare and advice from Mrs Craig was excellent. This woman thinks she’s just doing her job but she’s changing and saving lives everyday with care. I will forever be grateful and thankful to her. Truly an amazing person. Thank you.

Mrs Craig was an amazing surgeon and very personable. She made me feel very comfortable and completely at ease with what was an embarrassing issue. I had two anal skin tags removed which resulted from pregnancy. As a young, fit woman I always felt conscious about them. Mrs Craig found that they were attached to two internal haemorrhoids which she also removed during surgery. Although there was some pain post operatively, the result are well worth it!
