(GB News) A general practitioner is being forced to be monitored by a “responsible officer” after asking a Muslim woman to remove her veil.
Dr Keith Wolverson was suspended for nine months after being found guilty of or admitting to a total of 17 charges of misconduct relating to incidents between January and May 2018.
The incidents involving the GP, who was working as a locum at a walk-in centre at Royal Stoke University Hospital, concern urgent care centres in both Derby and Stoke.
Dr Wolverson asked a patient to take off her niqab three times as he could not hear her describing her daughter’s symptoms.
