My experience of Mr Crinnion having, had 2 surgeries one 4 years ago and another 16 days ago has been beyond exceptional. He is an extremely good communicator of the process , procedure and risks . In addition my experience of my 2 surgeries has also been excellent with recovery far quicker and post surgical pain well below what I was expecting. I would recommend him to anyone as a great consultant and surgeon.
