A dentist has been erased from the GDC register for racist, sexist and homophobic discrimination. It follows a long case with several hearings and a High Court appeal. The High Court ordered that a lesser sanction be overturned, and a newly constituted Professional Conduct Committee then imposed erasure. The original report warns that it contains racist comments and references to sexual violence.
Why it matters: It shows how the GDC and the courts deal with discriminatory misconduct by dentists, which bears on the standards patients can expect.
Key words: dentist, erased from the GDC register, High Court appeal, discriminatory misconduct, Professional Conduct Committee, lesser sanction
