We must challenge 'doctor knows best' attitude, bereaved mother says

We must challenge 'doctor knows best' attitude, bereaved mother says Merope Mills, an editor at the Guardian, has questioned doctors' attitudes after her 13-year-old daughter Martha's preventable death in hospital.

Martha had sustained a rare pancreatic trauma after falling off a bike on a family holiday, and spent weeks in a specialist unit where she developed sepsis.

An inquest concluded that her death was preventable, and the hospital apologised. BBC News
