I’m sure everybody had the same initial thought when reading this.
These headline writers know what they’re doing.
Dr Who.
Headbutted waiter.
Suspended for a year.
That’s how I read it
Broke the guys eye socket and didn’t even get jailed smh.
>Hospital scans revealed a fracture to the victim’s eye socket and in a statement he told the court he had been left with long-term pain and vision problems.
Honestly the doctor in question should be struck off.
This is an excerpt from an article from 2024 which has more details on the incident:
[*Newcastle Crown Court*](https://www.mirror.co.uk/all-about/crown-court) *heard the waiter suffered a “huge amount of pain” and has been left with a visible dent to his forehead, which is too risky to operate on.*
[https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/doctor-headbutted-waiter-after-turning-34035655](https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/doctor-headbutted-waiter-after-turning-34035655)
He would have punched the waiter, but he was sworn to do no arm.
It’s crazy how hard it is to get struck off as a doctor. It seems like anything short of murdering someone is allowed.
>Judge Mallett added: “I can only conclude your behaviour on this night was out of character.”
Out of character lol
>The court heard the doctor, of Bowburn, County Durham, has a previous conviction for common assault in 2001 and was cautioned for criminal damage in 2007.
Wow speaking as a doctor I’m amazed this guy didn’t get struck off permanently. Sounds like a violent drunk who has no place seeing patients imo.
Which regeneration was it? I bet it was The War Doctor.
*Waiter walks into A&E after the incident*
“No fucking way…”
He had previous convictions and he left the poor waiter with long term damage to his eye. Let’s face it, the only reason he wasn’t considered a threat to public safety is because he has a nice professional job, which he will walk back into in 12 months time.
Ordered to pay £2000 compensation? If that had been me that had been assaulted, I would be wanting much more than that to feel.like I had be compensated.
According to the GMC register, this guy is a gynaecologist also.
Graduated from a university in Lithuania in 2011.
>Hospital scans revealed a fracture to the victim’s eye socket and in a statement he told the court he had been left with long-term pain and vision problems.
Jesus Christ. He should be struck off, frankly. Disgusting behaviour.
I initially read this as Doctor Who headbutted waiter. I was wondering which one.
