80-year-old GP called CPD pointless and psychologist ‘a skank’: tribunal
The GP told an impaired registrants panel he was ‘an unpleasant human being but not demented’.
A GP who said CPD was pointless and that he did not need to update his medical knowledge — despite graduating in 1969 — has lost a legal fight against emergency suspension.
The GP, 80, had faced almost a dozen complaints including five in 2023, mainly about his communication, before the Medical Council of NSW suspended him under emergency powers.
