Doctor apologises for 'heated' conversation with Dhara Kivlehan's husband

A senior doctor has apologised over a heated conversation he had with the husband of a new mother as her condition deteriorated following an emergency Caesarean section.

Dhara Kivlehan, 29 and originally from India, died in Belfast’s Royal Victoria Hospital on September 28, 2010 after she was airlifted from Sligo hospital where she had given birth a week earlier and suffered a severe strain of pre-eclampsia.
