Wicklow GP suspended over prescribing of large quantities of controlled drugs to patients
The president of the High Court, Judge David Barniville, granted an application by the Medical Council to suspend the registration of Regine Grah and to prohibit her from practising medicine while a fitness-to-practise process arising out of a complaint against her is under way.
Suspending a general practitioner with immediate effect is a rare occurrence. This is evident from data provided by the Disciplinary Board, following the suspension of a GP from Rhoon this week. Patients reacted with surprise to the reason for the suspension. "I am devastated."
