Doctors spoilers: Heston Carter has plans to help his troubled wife Ruhma

After Ruhma's shock diagnosis, Heston Carter wants to send his wife to see a private doctor about her hearing. But will she agree to go?

Dr Heston Carter has been thrown by the news his wife Ruhma is slowly losing her hearing.

Feeling bad he didn't pick-up on her problems earlier, Heston jumps into medical emergency mode and recommends Ruhma visit a private Audiologist for a further assessment.

But how will midwife Ruhma, who is a champion of the NHS, feel about seeking private treatment for her hearing loss?

Meanwhile, Ruhma's colleague Ayesha Lee is out on a routine patient visit when she notices an unwell looking boy with a young guy who could be his dad.

However, when Ayesha further investigates, she discovers dad Owen Wilde has walked off with his son Noah during a supervised contact visit, and now a social worker Gary Armstrong and the police are out looking for him!
