LONDON: Doctor Suhail Anjum, who left a patient on an operating table to engage in sex with a nurse, has been cleared to pursue his medical career in the UK<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Consultant anaesthetist Suhail Anjum, 44, was found ‘in a compromising position’ with another nurse<\/a> at Tameside General Hospital in 2023 during an operation.<\/p>\n

Dr. Anjum graduated in Lahore in 2004 and went to the UK in 2011, working in Bristol, Milton Keynes, and Dartford before joining the Tameside and Glossop Integrated Trust in 2015.<\/p>\n

He resigned from the trust in 2024 and worked in Liverpool before going back to Pakistan.<\/p>\n

A disciplinary panel has now determined that Dr Anjum’s ‘deplorable’ behavior constituted serious misconduct, but decided that there was a ‘very low risk’ of repetition.<\/p>\n

It has been decided that a written warning must stay on the doctor’s register for two years, stating that his fitness to practice as a doctor was not diminished.<\/p>\n

Dr. Sohail Anjum said that when the incident happened, he and his wife were struggling to cope as a couple due to the birth of their daughter. It was a difficult time.<\/p>\n

‘I have let everybody down,’ he said.<\/p>\n

He told the tribunal that he needed a break that day to rest and left the patient and went to another operating theater in the hospital.<\/p>\n

The doctor admitted that his behavior could have put the patient’s life in danger. While apologizing for his behavior, he assured that this mistake would not happen again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
