Hillingdon Hospital invests in £100,000 robots to train doctors

A new form of "patient" has been introduced at a west London hospital to help train the next generation of doctors.

Robots, costing £100,000, which can speak, cry, sweat and have seizures are controlled by a human to simulate a real emergency.

BBC London's health correspondent Karl Mercer spoke to Dr Lola Olakunbi, junior doctor Sara Maki and medical trainer Dr Ritu Gupta.
