Roger Norwich

Medico-legal expert; GMC complainant

LawLegal explanation4Mainstream news

Main contribution

Medico-legal expert with an interest in paediatrics and newborn medicine. The Guardian reported he filed formal GMC complaints about both prosecution expert witnesses, Dr Dewi Evans and Dr Sandie Bohin, arguing their trial evidence did not meet the standard expected of an impartial expert witness. He told the Guardian he had not received a response from the GMC.

Key claim

Norwich told the Guardian he believed both Evans and Bohin "had failed to provide balanced, impartial views, instead giving the court opinions that would not be supported by most doctors." He acknowledged, like Svilena Dimitrova, that he did not have access to the full clinical notes used at trial.
