A patient who was left to starve, bullying and mismanagement are among the allegations being made by a senior NHS clinician in Gloucestershire.
The whistleblower has criticised the county's NHS Trust claiming his concerns have fallen on deaf ears.
"I think it has now reached a point where people don't care anymore," said the senior member of staff who wants to remain anonymous.
The NHS Trust has defended itself against all the allegations being made.
Dr Frank Harsent, chief executive of Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, said: "I am disappointed that this individual feels that the best way to highlight their concerns about our organisation is to approach the media.
"The fact that they choose to remain anonymous leaves me in the position of having to defend allegations on a broad range of issues without having specific details."
