TRIBUTES have been paid to a ‘selfless’ former doctor at Barnsley Hospital after he died surrounded by his friends and family.
Dr John Bridson, 80, died of septicemia and bladder cancer just after midnight last Tuesday at his Wombwell home.
John worked at Barnsley Hospital as lead paediatrician from 1976 until he retired in 2000.
It wasn’t just residents across the borough who John helped - he was also worked in field hospitals during the Kosovo crisis and he helped to cure hypothyroidism in Albania.
His wife, 71-year-old Jenny, has previously spoke poignantly about his dementia diagnosis in 2014 - but admits they knew that something was wrong in the years leading up.
