Profile: David Southall - The Guardian 5th December 2007

Few other doctors have been so under the disciplinary or media spotlight. David Southall has been held in high esteem by colleagues, yet portrayed as arrogant and dangerous by families challenging his judgment. He is an expert in Munchausen's syndrome by proxy, in which adults cause illness or injury to children to gain attention or sympathy, and in sudden infant death syndrome. He is described by supporters as a man who has pushed the boundaries of knowledge and tested new ideas.
