Summary: How robust is the NHS in dealing with doctors' bad practice? Health Correspondent for the West of England Matthew Hill asks why surgeon Rob Jones, who delivered the Camerons’ baby Florence in 2010, was able to remain in practice for 20 years in Cornwall despite being subject to 8 inquiries into his medical negligence. Sir Bruce Keogh exclusively tells the Report that in the next two years the NHS will be rolling out a league table or surgeons to scrutinise surgeons’ practice.
