Seven doctors to face GMC over Shipman inquiry findings

摘要

Seven doctors—six general practitioners and a pathologist—who were criticised by the inquiry into the serial killer GP Harold Shipman are to face charges of serious professional misconduct, the General Medical Council confirmed last week. Retired consultant pathologist David Bee, who carried out the postmortem examination on Renate Overton, 47, a patient with asthma murdered by Dr Shipman, faces a hearing on 27 September.
