A man who required life-changing surgery after developing a flesh-eating bacteria infection has lost a high court battle.

55-year-old Stuart Dalchow claimed that St George’s Hospital in Tooting hadn’t acted fast enough.

He claimed that a delay in administering antibiotics and carrying out an urgent ultrasound contributed to his injuries.

However, a judge ruled that while there were issues, it couldn’t be proved that they had an impact on the outcome.
