Dr Hilary said: "I know! I just wanted to say, here's a picture of my daughter's baby being born by caesarean section. People talk about the NHS being broken, this was a moment of fantastic, five star, wonderful experience at Kingston Maternity hospital.

"Baby born by elective caesarean section, too young female obstetrician surgeons, lovely atmosphere in the room, everything went perfectly, couldn't reccomend them highly enough. Where the NHS works well, it is fabulous, thank you Kingston!" to which Christine said: "Congratulations!"
