Final remarks
Jump to
In this report I have set out our investigation, findings, conclusions and decision with regard to Mrs D’s complaint about Mr Nath. This complaint should have been very simple and straightforward to resolve. However, Mr Nath’s failure to apologise has prolonged the complaints process and with it the frustration and upset experienced by Mrs D. I hope that this report will draw what has been a long and complex complaints process to a close.
I have taken the decision, in light of Mr Nath’s response to our draft report, to share the findings of our investigation into Mrs D’s complaint with the GDC. I consider Mr Nath’s unwillingness to comply with recommendations of professional bodies raises concerns about his fitness to practise, sufficient to constitute a risk to the health and safety of patients.
