speaking as a psychiatric professional myself I find this event extremely disturbing.
Reading the details leads me to suspect she has a mental disorder and hopefully she will be suspended for longer and get some treatment- she is a risk to other people and should not be permitted to have contact with patients

You might want to read the details of the hearing (on the GMC website) for a more detailed understanding of her state of mind. It doesn’t seem to me very likely that she she will be un-suspended in 6 months’ time.

Unbelievable. She would have made a great doctor in biblical times. What always amazes me in these cases, is the levels of compartmentalism that can be achieved in one mind.
