Rogue doctors ‘use superhero status to abuse patients’

Myles Bradbury, who abused young cancer patients in his care, cultivated unusually close relationships with patients and families.Examples included breast surgeon Ian Paterson, who was jailed in May for 15 years for carrying out unnecessary cancer operations, and specialist Myles Bradbury, who was jailed for 22 years (reduced to 16 on appeal) in 2014 for abusing young cancer patients.The probe, by experienced NHS investigators Verita, has been shared with the Observer.
