Sir George Pinker (The Queens Doctor), was he any good?

Question

To be honest, I don't think he was. If he couldn't keep himself alive then he certainly isn't fit for her majesty.

Answer 1

Of course he was,they are some of the healthiest corgis I have ever seen

Answer 2

Since Sir George Pinker  (1924-2007) was a gynecologist and obstetrician who began his official Royal duties in 1972, he probably didn't attend to either Princess Margaret or the Queen Mum, who were both past giving birth to children.  However, he did deliver nine Royal babies, including Princes William and Henry. He retired from practicing medicine in 1990, 17 years before his death from Parkinson's in May 2007 at age 82.

Although Sir Pinker attended Royal parties as a personal friend of the Queen and was honoured with a CVO in 1982 and a KCVO in 1990, he certainly had a long and distinguished medical career apart from his Royal duties.  After earning his medical degree from St Mary's Hospital, Paddington, in 1947, Sir Pinker served with the Royal Army Medical Corps in Egypt, returning again to St Mary's in 1958.  In 1974, in addition to serving as a Consultant Obstetrician at St Mary's, he held similar posts at King Edward VII and Middlesex Hospitals.

Sir Pinker was a Fellow of the Royal Medical Colleges of Edinburgh and London as well as the College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists, serving as president of the latter body from 1987 to 90.  He also sat on the council of the Winston Churchill Trust.  He wrote professionally for medical journals and published several textbooks on gynaecology.

Answer 3

lol, he did a good job of using princess Maggie as a source of spare parts to keep the queen mum going. Notice how the queen mum didn't last long after Maggie died?
