A former patient of murdered Doctor Gary Jenkins has called him "the best psychiatrist" she ever had in a touching tribute. Dr Jenkins was brutally murdered after being targeted in a homophobic assault in Bute Park, Cardiff, on July 20 last year.
The consultant psychiatrist who worked for Cardiff & Vale Health Board was attacked by two men and a teenage girl who left him for dead after subjecting him to a brutal attack which went on for 15 minutes. He died on August 5 last year having sustained catastrophic injuries including a bleed on the brain and multiple fractures.
Maddy Read, a former patient of Dr Jenkins during his time at the health board, penned a touching tribute to the doctor, who she said it was "easy to say was the best psychiatrist I've ever had".
