Cristina has the skills and the character to provide expert, empathetic, compassionate and safe care in your anaesthetic journey. She will review your medical history before your procedure and plan for a safe and uneventful anaesthetic. She may ring you before your anaesthetic (if necessary) to discuss any issues and will see you in hospital on the day of your surgery. Please complete the Patient Health Questionnaire as soon as possible in order for your Anaesthetic care plan to be arranged.
