Sir Albert Aynsley-Green (born 30 May 1943) is a paediatric endocrinologist and Professor Emeritus of Child Health at University College London.
[5] Aynsley-Green started his clinical training at King's College London GKT School of Medical Education at the Guy's Hospital campus.
[10] Milburn stated that Aynsley-Green's priority will be to spearhead the faster development of the first ever national standards for children's health services.
[12] The role was entirely independent from government, with a statutory responsibility to speak for health and well-being needs of the children in England, numbering approximately 11 million.
In the interview Aynsley-Green posited that Britain was suffering a deep malaise and could be considered one of the most child hostile countries in the world.
Aynsley-Green said in interview, that current healthcare services were still geared towards adults, and worst outcomes for children in the developed world[15] In a foreword of a report published by the BMA,[21] Aynsley-Green, wrote that the National Service Framework for children was being systematically betrayed by politicians through a lack of political will, and blaming the churn in ministerial appointments, political indifference and failedby the Parliament to hold the Department of Health.
Aynsley-Green also said that the Department of Health publishing of a new policy statement, Achieving Equity and Excellence was meant to neutralise Sir Ian Kennedy's highly critical report,[22] on the lack of progress in improving children’s services.
In the report Aynsley-Green, expressed in writing a kind of déjà vu that all his previous work and his colleagues, on the National Framework was being repeated.
[2][3] In 1991, Aynsley-Green was awarded The Andrea Prader Prize for outstanding achievements in leadership, teaching and clinical practice in the field of pediatric endocrinology.
