Martin Wilks

According to a report by Pesticide Action Network UK:

outpatients at the Medical Toxicology Unit (MTU) Outpatients Clinic (the London centre [of the National Poisons Information Service or NPIS] forms part of the MTU) may see Dr Martin Wilks, one of the four consultants. He works part-time for the MTU: for three days a week he is the Medical Advisor to the agrochemical company Zeneca (now Syngenta). Although he may see pesticide exposure patients at an initial stage, when it may not be clear that their illness is pesticide-related, or if there is an emergency, Dr Wilks does not deal with long-term pesticide cases. Patients are not informed at the outset that he also works for an agrochemical company and neither Dr Wilks nor the MTU regard it as appropriate to disclose what many may see as a potential conflict of interest.
