Introducing Emily Borhan, SAS Manager.

Emily is a law graduate with extensive experience in medical law, negligence, and professional liability, and has supported surgeons in the indemnity field since qualifying in 2010. 

Her service to CBS members is rooted in years of working with surgical schemes, an in-depth understanding of the needs of surgeons, and the collaboration required with external agencies in defending them in disciplinary and negligence cases. Having worked closely with Dr. Gerard Panting, she has gained a deep understanding of negotiating with NHS trusts.
