Family win right to sue second doctor in US
Last week New York’s Supreme Court ruled that a jury should decide whether anaesthesiologist Dr Madhavrao Subbarao had “abandoned” 42-year-old Kay Cregan, from Croom, after the operation.
Ms Cregan died after post-operative bleeding blocked her airways. She had complained of being dizzy and fainted the morning after she had undergone five procedures including a face-lift, eyelid surgery and nasal reconstruction.
