Head of hospital consultants ‘appalled’ at Neary scandal

WHAT happened to women under the care of disgraced obstetrician Dr Michael Neary was appalling and should never happen again, said president of the Irish Hospital Consultants Association (IHCA) Dr Paul Oslizlok.

“As doctors, as husbands, as human beings, I think we would have to be appalled by what happened,” said Dr Oslizlok.

He believed lessons had been learned “by all sides” from the exposure of the full horror of what happened during Dr Neary’s tenure at Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital in Drogheda over 25 years.
