My recent visit was a telephone consultation with Dr Theo. I love that the Criswell practice offer telephone consultations, it’s so convenient when you don’t have to be examined or see a doctor face to face. It works for my treatment & saves a lot of my tine.

I couldn’t have asked for more. Knowledgeable, thorough. Cautious and a delight to spend 20 minutes talking to. Like a slimmer, Dr Michael. The Apple doesn’t fall far from the tree! Thank you, Theo. Best wishes, Jeremy.

Dr Criswell has helped me with a number of issues over the years. He’s always incredibly gentle, firm and kind and I always know that I’m in safe hands. He’s very thorough, thinks of everything and you never feel that he hasn’t done everything he possible can.

Dr Theo is the most attentive and thorough doctor. It’s been a long time that I have wanted to find someone like him who actually spends the time listening to your issues and then digs deep. He doesn’t leave anything to chance so for the first time since my own GP sadly died, I have found a doctor in whom I have full confidence.
