Temporary suspension for University Hospital Kerry radiologist whose work was subject of review

A temporary consultant radiologist whose work at University Hospital Kerry was the subject of review after complaints were made is among three medical practitioners separately temporarily suspended from practising medicine here by order of the president of the High Court.

Mr Justice Peter Kelly said he was satisfied it was necessary, on public interest grounds, to grant the Medical Council’s ex parte application (one side only represented) for the order against Clare Hartigan, of Ballinwear, Nenagh, Co Tipperary, who had worked at the Kerry hospital between March 2016 and October 2017.
