Husband advocates for in-person GP visits after wife's misdiagnosis leads to terminal cancer death

Laura Barlow, 33, was misdiagnosed with endometriosis during a phone appointment with her GP. She died from terminal cancer just months later, after her symptoms were initially dismissed as a common illness. Her husband, Michael, is now advocating for mandatory face-to-face GP appointments. He has launched a petition that has gathered over 130,000 signatures, highlighting concerns about the effectiveness of remote consultations. Following Laura's death, Michael is raising their three children alone. He believes earlier blood tests could have led to a different outcome for his wife. The NHS has expressed condolences but cannot comment on individual cases.
