She visited her GP practice twice, and was under the impression she had seen a GP. But instead, she was seen by a physician associate, who only had basic-level medical training and wasn't a qualified doctor.
Emily's calf pain was misdiagnosed as a sprain, and her shortness of breath was mistaken for long covid and anxiety - for which she was wrongly prescribed medication to slow her heart.
She tragically died on October 31 last year, after suffering a pulmonary embolism. Her devastated parents, Marion and Brendan Chesterton, helplessly watched on as her health rapidly deteriorated.
An inquest at St Pancras Coroner's Court in March this year concluded that the physician associate should have sent Emily to a hospital emergency unit, and that if she had been treated, likely would have survived.
