A doctor who used to work for Queen Elizabeth has been killed in a traffic accident on Wednesday. Peter Fisher, 67, died at the scene after his bicycle was in collision with a truck in central London.

“We are all deeply shocked and saddened to learn that Dr Peter Fisher tragically died in a road traffic accident yesterday,” Gill Gaskin, medical director at University College London Hospitals, said.

Buckingham Palace said the Queen has been informed of his death. A world renowned expert in homeopathy, Fisher has worked as a homeopathic physician to the British monarch for about 15 years.

“He was much respected as a good doctor who saw homeopathy as complementary to medical care. We are all shocked by his tragic loss,” the Queen’s former surgeon-gynaecologist Marcus Setchell told the Evening Standard. Fisher is the eighth cyclist to have been killed in London traffic collisions in 2018.
