Addenbrooke’s surgeon in Cambridge suspended after children hurt

A specialist surgeon has been suspended from a world-renowned hospital after nine children under their care were left with lasting injuries.

A review was commissioned at Addenbrooke’s Hospital, Cambridge, after concerns were raised by the surgeon’s colleagues in October.

Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust said an independent expert found care fell “below expected standards” on several occasions over the past two and a half years.

The trust’s chief executive Roland Sinker said: “We are very sorry that this has happened and we apologise unreservedly to our patients and their families.”
