Guyana Medical Council forced to delay registration of Trinidadian Pathologist in Adriana Younge’s case

The Medical Council of Guyana (MCOG) has postponed a decision on the short-term registration of Dr Hubert Daisley, a Trinidadian pathologist identified by the family lawyers of Adriana Younge to provide a fourth opinion in the ongoing investigation into her death.

In a statement, the Council disclosed that during its statutory meeting held on Monday, new information came to light that was not available at the time of Dr Daisley’s previous registration.

The nature of the new details has not been publicly disclosed but has prompted the Council to initiate further inquiries.

“In keeping with our mandate to uphold the highest standards of medical practice in Guyana, the Council has determined that the matter warrants additional investigation and verification,” the MCOG noted in its release.

To this end, the Medical Council has written formally to the Medical Board of Trinidad and Tobago seeking further information about Dr Daisley. The Trinidadian Board has acknowledged receipt of the request and has indicated that a response will be forthcoming.

The MCOG stated that a final decision regarding Dr Daisley’s application will be made after the additional information is reviewed.

Dr Daisley is the second international pathologist identified by the legal team representing the Younge family, as they continue to seek clarity and accountability in Adriana Younge’s death.

Three international and independent pathologists have already regarded the death as drowning, though further toxicology tests are being done.
