Conditions imposed on Baby P doctor

A GP in the UK who failed to spot Baby P’s abuse can return to work as a doctor but only under strict conditions, the General Medical Council ruled today.

The GMC suspended Dr Jerome Ikwueke for 12 months in July last year for a series of failures in his care of the toddler.

A review panel found today that his fitness to practise was still “impaired” but concluded he could resume practising if he complies with 18 conditions imposed on his registration for a year.
