Local doctor to become Queen's gynaecologist
A doctor at Queen Charlotte's Hospital is to become the Queen's gynaecologist.
Alan Farthing, who is also the former fiance of murdered BBC Television presenter Jill Dando, was officially appointed to the position this week.
The prestigious post is likely to see him deliver the next generation of royal children, including any babies born to princes William and Harry.
As well as working at Queen CharlotteÕs Hospital in Du Cane Road, Shepherd's Bush doctor Farthing also practices at St MaryÕs in Paddington and at a private Harley Street clinic.
He will take over from the QueenÕs current gynaecologist, Marcus Setchell, who delivered the Countess of Wessex's two babies.
Farthing was engaged to Crimewatch presenter, Jill Dando, for three months before she was shot and killed outside her Fulham home nearly ten years ago.
He went on to marry Dr Janet Stowell in March after the couple met while Stowell was training at St Mary's.
