Inquiry told doctor was angry at nurses

A doctor was ‘very angry’ and ‘aggressive’ towards two nurses, a medical inquiry heard yesterday.

Omar Hassan Khalafalla Mohamed, during an incident in October 2012, had acted unprofessionally with several of his colleagues, it was claimed. Dr Hassan, with an address in Dublin 15, is the subject of a disciplinary inquiry taking place at the Medical Council headquarters in Dublin.

He faces a number of allegations relating to events that occurred and medical care he provided while working as a senior house officer at the Midlands Regional Hospital Portlaoise, Co Laois, Mayo General Hospital and University Hospital Galway. Dr Hassan denies the allegations.
