## Audit Notes
- This report was generated via a single web search query returning 9 total results; 7 were directly relevant to the subject and are cited above.
- Search-engine-sourced information was not independently verified beyond cross-referencing multiple sources (LinkedIn, about.me, patient review site, video platforms).
- One unrelated same-surname historical figure (Sir Milsom Rees, a Welsh laryngologist, d. 1952) appeared in results but was excluded as not relevant.
- No official/primary institutional source (e.g. Bayer newsroom, GMC register) was directly queried in this audit; findings rely on secondary and self-published/profile sources.
