A CORONER has advised a family to see a doctor in case they suffer from their dead relative's heart weakness.
Computer programmer Clifford McKnight, 43, collapsed while at work in the Princess Royal University Hospital's computer department on April 13.
Mr McKnight, of Whitehouse, Dixon Place, West Wickham, was pronounced dead on arrival at the main hospital.
Heart specialist Dr Mary Sheppard told Croydon Coroner's Court he was likely to have died from sudden heart failure.
Recording a verdict of death by natural causes, coroner Dr Roy Palmer said there was no evidence prescribed drugs taken by Mr McKnight had played a part in his death.
He added others family members should undergo examinations to make sure they did not have a similar heart problem.
