Consultant (Episode 9667)

The unnamed Consultant Surgeon operated on Sinead Tinker when she was delivered of a premature baby boy in January 2019. The birth had to be carried out by caesarean section as Sinead's cervical cancer was spreading and an urgent cause of radiotherapy was needed. The operation itself seemed to be a success but the small child was instantly whisked off to neonatal care. Almost immediately, alarms started to go as Sinead passed out and husband Daniel Osbourne was pushed out of the theatre while the staff saw to his wife.

He was already heavily overwrought at the challenges facing them and had trouble holding it together as he sat in his scrubs outside the block of operating theatres. The consultant came out to assure him that Sinead was fine now: she had suffered heavy bleeding from the delicate tissues of the uterus but all was okay after the operation and the baby was also doing fine. He sobbed out his relieved thanks to her.
