Mr David Fillingham. Chief Executive of Royal Bolton NHS Trust. You are an inveterate LIAR

The above Press Release was unearthed from the archives of North Staffordshire NHS Trust. It was sanctioned by David Fillingham, the current Chief Executive of Royal Bolton NHS Trust and former Chief Executive of North Staffordshire NHS Trust.

It concerns Ward 87. It should be noted that Ward 87 had two reports - one in 1999 and one in 2001. Both upheld my concerns. The evidence can be read here. The 1999 mirrored the 2001 Report which stated

The summary of the 2001 Creamer Report concealed by the GMC stated as follows

(a) “Patient care was clearly affected by the failures identified”;
(b) “The Directorate failed to take appropriate action when the allegations were made in a statement by Dr Pal”;
(c) “Although medical and nursing staff were concerned about the range of issues...no one voiced their concerns except Dr Pal which either demonstrated a general acceptance of the issues or staff felt unable to raise concerns”.

The Press Release issued by Mr David Fillingham and his set of gremlins stated

"Where allegations were made about the treatment of specific patients, case-notes were reviewed and her claims could not be substantiated"

David also had a number of conversations with the Director of Public Health requesting that I be referred to the General Medical Council for exposing the detailed negligence of North Staffordshire NHS Trust during his reign. Of course, David now feels he has a expensive suit and a clean cut look and no one will piece together his past. It should be noted that after the findings of the 2001 Report, Fillingham left North Staffordshire NHS Trust.

Let us test whether Fillingham's press release was correct :-

1999, one year before Fillingham's press release, the following was noted

" I informed you that I had undertaken an audit of every single patient on the ward the previous week. I identified a serious lack of baseline and routine observations. In the case of some patients there was also clearly a breach of policy and there was an apparent lack of misunderstanding from the staff of the importance of such issues. I informed you that in my opinion the level of care demonstrated for some patients on the ward at the time of my audit was nothing short of negligent"Medical Division Memorandum Ward 87 From Ms Teresa Fenech Directorate Manager for Infectious Diseases City General Hospital Stoke on Trent. Reference TF/CLS/005 18th May 1999

In May 1999, the Medical Division received an Adverse Incident Form from Ward 87 which identified a malfunction of a defibrillator used during resuscitation. A two stage investigation was began.

"To summarise other discussions that we have had on the medical PRHOs, I think that the following should be addressed within the directorate as a matter of urgency - (2) They should have proper clinical supervision at all times and help from a more experienced colleague... should always be available (The New Doctor GMC), On discussion with several of them they are still working without immediate supervision for significant periods.” Dr Colin Campbell CAC/ AR/LET 2nd December 1998

We can safely conclude that David Fillingham is a dishonest man who maliciously and purposely misled the public. Radio Stoke was not the only press release he had sent. There were others. Professor Rod Griffiths and David Fillingham wished to shut my concerns down and they went about it in a very interesting way. Of course, their dishonest ways are now on the internet for all to observe. Royal Bolton Foundation NHS Trust has a high death rate. We wonder why. Mr Concealer has hidden the dead bodies just like he has always done. The problem with this kind of corruption and high level dishonesty at the heart of the current government is that there is no accountability through the NHS or the media. Of course, Fillingham is a large leopard who never changed his spots. The NHS works much like the Catholic Church - when a child is abused in a Catholic church, the priest is sent to a quiet place. The locals are not warned about the perpetrator. Similarly, Bolton was never warned about Fillingham's past. Fillingham simply arrived and took up his place and had it not been for me - no one would have noticed his slithery ways. The price of a total lack of accountability in the NHS is that Fillingham goes on to end further lives. The Department of Health continues to be in denial about Fillingham's incompetence much like the Catholic Church remains in denial about child abuse. The sad fact is that large numbers of people die and the government continues to turn a blind eye.

If David and his cronies are reading this, he should remember I am just returning the favour of the mass character assassination done to me as a junior doctor internally through the medical profession and externally through the media. It is a great shame we do not have the Hammurabi's code because if we did, David Fillingham would be out of a job.
