A five-year-old girl died of an asthma attack after being turned away by a GP because she arrived minutes late for her appointment.
Ellie-May Clark and her mother, from Newport, were told to return the next morning by Dr Joanne Rowe, a specialist in safeguarding children.
The little girl died five hours later, on 26 January 2015…
Ms Clark, a single mother, was too upset to talk about losing her little girl, but Ellie-May’s grandmother said: “We all feel terribly let down, I think Dr Rowe should go to jail for what she did. I can’t believe she was not struck off.
“We haven’t even had an apology from Dr Rowe who has got away with just a slap on the wrist.
“She has been allowed to get on with her life, get another job and move on.”
