02 Dr Ravi Jayaram
Consultant Paediatrician
Dr Ravi Jayaram is well-trained in paediatrics , particularly in treating asthma and cystic fibrosis . In 2015 , he co-presented a television programme ‘ Born Naughty ?’ which explored child behavioural problems and is a contributor to the BBC Asian Network , where he offers parents support and advice as a child health guru .
While Dr Jayaram has always been dedicated to ensuring the safety of his smallest and most vulnerable hospital patients , he never expected to be thrust into a murder investigation .
After noticing a correlation between unexplained baby-deaths on his ward and odd behaviour from one particular nurse , Jayaram presented his concerns to hospital management . He was ignored and ordered to apologise to the colleague , who was eventually found guilty of murdering seven newborns . Dr Ravi was integral to helping catch child killer Lucy Letby and ensuring change is made in the NHS to protect whistleblowers .
“ I ’ m not a hero , I was just doing my job ”, said the self-described ‘ tryathlete ’.
