Three doctors censured over care of man who had chest pains, and later died

The president of the High Court has confirmed the censure of three doctors and attachment of conditions to their practices over their involvement in the care of a man who died three days after being admitted to a hospital.

The three doctors were found guilty of poor professional performance when they dealt with father-of-three Seamus Kavanagh (52) who died on March 10, 2014, at Naas General Hospital of shock and peritonitis secondary to a perforated duodenum.
