"There are now 65 inquests ongoing into the deaths of patients of Ian Paterson, who was convicted of wounding patients with botched and unnecessary operations in 2017 and sentenced to 20 years in prison. Mr Foster said: "I have reason to believe Mrs Brown and Ms Fox's deaths were caused by or contributed to by substandard care provided by Ian Paterson and have reason to suspect their deaths were unnatural.""
"Pauline Margaret Brown - maiden name Doyle - was born in Birmingham and lived in Water Orton, Warwickshire. A retired dressmaker, she was married to a former service engineer. She died on 9 June 2006 at George Elliot Hospital in Nuneaton, with her cause of death recorded as metastatic carcinoma of the breast."
"Jennifer Alison Fox was born in Cardiff but lived in Birmingham and had worked as bar staff. She died on 22 August 2012 at the Velindre Cancer Centre in Cardiff. Her cause of death was recorded as metastatic breast cancer."
Two additional inquests were opened at Birmingham Coroners' Court for Pauline Brown, aged 62, and Jennifer Fox, aged 47. The coroner indicated reason to believe their deaths were caused or contributed to by substandard care and to suspect the deaths were unnatural. Pauline Brown died on 9 June 2006 with cause recorded as metastatic carcinoma of the breast. Jennifer Fox died on 22 August 2012 with cause recorded as metastatic breast cancer. Next of kin for both women were traced but not present at the opening, and the inquests were adjourned to later dates. Ian Paterson was convicted in 2017 and sentenced to 20 years.
