'Dishonest' Ashfield doctor suspended for further 12 months

A Nottinghamshire doctor who was suspended for dishonesty has been suspended from practice for a further year. Dr Khalid Shendi, who was based in Ashfield, was banned from operating as a doctor in 2020 after a tribunal heard he misled people in the medical profession on several occasions.

The latest review of his case, held on January 27, resulted in a further 12-month suspension after no evidence was submitted to prove the doctor was no longer impaired. "The tribunal concluded that Dr Shendi appears to have disengaged from the regulatory process in light of the fact that no new evidence has been received," reads the ruling.

The initial tribunal, in January that year, heard how Dr Shendi recorded in medical notes that he had contacted numerous medical professionals about a patient, despite knowing this was incorrect. It related to a patient he was treating in hospital in March 2016, when the doctor wrote in notes he had contacted a consultant urologist on call for advice on how to treat the patient.
