Doctor quizzed on fallopian ‘clip’
Lorna McKeogh had agreed to the clipping of one tube but, after the operation, was told by consultant obstetrician and gynaecologist Declan Egan: “What did you want me to do, stitch it back up, wake you up, and ask for your permission?”
Dr Egan, of Dangan, Co Galway, faces one allegation of poor professional performance at a Medical Council fitness-to-practice inquiry in relation to the procedure he carried out on Ms McKeogh on June 2, 2010, at University College Hospital Galway.
