An amazing doctor who listened to me and knew what was wrong and what I needed to do. She explained everything in plain English.
Highly recommend her.

Mrs Craig has a warm and friendly personality making it easy to discuss problems with her. She was extremely thorough and explained everything at the first appointment and subsequent appointment. I never felt rushed and was able to ask a number of questions which were answered patiently.
