Mrs. Craig was reassuring during my visit with her, friendly and gets her points across in a clear way. Best of all she promised me that she would be the surgeon performing my upcoming operation on the 11th December, which was a great relief to me as I would not be comfortable with being operated on by a learner.
I feel I am under about as good care as I could be with Mrs Craig as my consultant. Her hair can be a little bright though at times when you are just waking up in your hospital bed!

I love this lady soooooo much. Mrs Craig saved my life, I was one meal away from my bowel perforating and required emergency surgery to remove sections of my lower bowel ni had a Stoma Bag on for 4 months and had never heard of a Stoma prior to my 1st surgical admission. I cracked up totally and Mrs Craig took me under her wing. I had 2 further admissions with Mrs Craig to have Stoma removed and hernias removed from operation site. I can't thank her enough for all she has done for me. She truly is a credit to the NHS

I have the utmost respect for this lady. Since 2015, when she found an uncommon type of tumour in my lower bowel, she has guided through multiple procedures, including MRI & CT scans, sigmoidoscopies, colonoscopies, and the associated investigations.
At all points she has kept me up to date with results, opinions, and prognosis. She has an excellent manner when dealing with patients, is very reassuring, has a lovely sense of humour, and is very professional.
Had Mrs Craig not embarked on my particular course of treatment 4 years ago, I often wonder how different my life could have been.
