Wow ! All I can say is this lady is amazing ! I suffer from health anxiety and all I can say is she was honest and knowledgeable all the way through seeing her ! She explained and was totally Honest and kind !! Had to have a camera and Biospy but all the way through this she was honest and reassuring !! And from from first glance told me what was wrong !! I can’t thank her enough
As soon as I met this lady she put me completely at ease with her friendly and down to earth personality. I am an overweight lady in my late sixties so obviously apprehensive about what may be in store but have found the experience a lot less embarrassing than initially expected. I would recommend Christine Craig to anyone not only for her personality but also for the way my problem has been handled and resolved. Due to my self consciousness I had put this problem off but in the end decided to just get on with it and in doing so really regretted not going soooner because the experience was not at all traumatic due to being put at ease on my initial consultation.
Thankyou Christine. You are a star.
I was referred to Mrs Graig and within 2 weeks I was seen and investigated by her team. With great professionalism I was cared for and reassured and given a clean bill of health. This afternoon I ( four week follow up) was again given advise and reassurance.
I visited Mrs Craig on the 7th January to discuss a long term problem I have. I found her a very sympathetic listener who gave me a very clear understanding of the options available. She has a friendly and open manner which makes it very easy to talk to her and trust her.
