Quote from author. Navdeep Kainth, Partner and Specialist Medical Negligence Solicitor, from MDS, said “We are supporting many families who have raised concerns about maternity services at Leicester’s hospitals.  It is important that the review hears from Leicester’s diverse communities, so that the root causes of the problems in maternity care can be understood. This is the only way that maternity care will be safe for all”.‍
