McCreevy backed disgraced plastic surgeon plan

FORMER Finance Minister Charlie McCreevy had supported a project to bring disgraced New York plastic surgeon Dr Michael Sachs to Ireland.

The surgeon is under investigation in the US following the death last month of Limerick mother-of-two Kay Cregan.

She had met him in Kildare last year after Mr McCreevy had brought the surgeon on a visit to Punchestown race centre. She died on March 19, two days after Dr Sachs had performed a nose operation and a facelift procedure.
