UK: Essex circumcision doctor barred from surgery by GMC

Story here. Excerpt:

'Dr Aziz Chaudry's fitness to practise was impaired as a result of his misconduct, a panel found.

The hearing concluded the standard of care given to five boys in 2006 was not that expected of a registered medical practitioner.

The patients all received circumcisions at his private clinic in Clacton.

The panel also found he failed to provide adequate details to the boy's families and to warn them of possible complications.
...
His procedures revealed failings in notifying the patients' GPs about the circumcisions, and inadequate record keeping, the GMC concluded.

The GMC imposed conditions on his registration which will remain in place for 12 months.

The doctor, who was trained in Pakistan and claimed to have more than 20 years' experience, was told he cannot carry out any surgical procedures for the next 12 months, including circumcisions.'
