Husband of GP who took her own life blames 'unbearable pressure' she was under

The husband of a GP who took her own life last week has blamed the “unbearable pressure” of the job for her death. Dr Gail Milligan’s husband said he is in no doubt her job led to her decision.

The 47-year-old mum of two's body was found in woodland in Bracknell, Berkshire, 24 hours after she was reported missing. Her husband Christopher Milligan posted an emotional tribute in which he described the huge workload she faced and wanted to raise awareness of the pressures doctors are under.

In the Facebook post, which he gave permission to be shared, he said : "It's such a sad waste of a wonderful, beautiful, funny and absolutely bananas wife, mother and doctor.”
