Inquiry into rogue surgeon set to hear opening statements

A public inquiry into disgraced neurosurgeon Sam Eljamel is to hear from core participants as they make opening statements.

- 

Mr Eljamel was head of neurosurgery at Dundee’s Ninewells Hospital from 1995 until his suspension in December 2013, during which time he is thought to have harmed dozens of patients and left some with life-changing injuries.

Following his suspension, he resigned from his post in May 2014 and removed himself from the General Medical Register in 2015.
