Christopher Redman displayed a dedication beyond the call of duty with all his patients on the Silver Star pre-eclampsia ward. He would appear at odd times to check on someone’s progress, or their baby’s, having biked from his home in Oxford.
We knew him from 1986-87, when our son Alex was born six weeks early, and thrived after treatment. Our second son, Chris, born in 1992, 14 weeks early, did not make it to Oxford, despite my pleas to use the air ambulance from Walsall. Christopher kept in touch with Walsall Manor hospital throughout my stay.
