Summary
The General Medical Council (GMC) is the UK's statutory body responsible for taking action to prevent a doctor from putting the safety and confidence of patients at risk. In this blog for The Spectator, doctor Max Pemberton argues that the GMC has lost the trust of doctors by bringing a series of inappropriate cases, resulting in the British Medical Association (BMA) calling for an overhaul of how the GMC is run.
He describes some recent investigations as being about 'petty' issues and highlights the significant impact being under investigation can have on doctors' mental health.
