(Jewish Group) Doctor who said Hammersmith would be better without Jews not racist, GMC tribunal finds

[Behind the Aegis]

Adoctor who said Hammersmith would be better if it was “Jew free” was found not to be racist but “comfortable with discriminatory language” by the General Medical Council’s independent tribunal.

Dr Dimitrios Psaroudakis, a consultant gynaecologist, has been suspended by the doctors’ regulator for three months after making dozens of racially offensive, sexist and derogatory remarks about colleagues and patients.

He also called his Jewish colleagues “big nose”, “leprechaun”, “alky” and “s*** for brains”, while messaging on the company’s IT systems before his resignation in September 2022.

He suggested Hammersmith, London, would be improved if it were “yew free”, and regularly referred to the clinic as “the temple”.

1. It sounds like it is the GMC that is "comfortable with discriminatory language"!

Meanwhile, Dr Martin Whyte, a paediatrician, who was sacked from his role at the British Medical Association for posting “zeig heil hahaha gas the Jews”, is also still licenced to practise by the GMC with “no restrictions”.

2. Nothing shocks me.

We live in an upside down inside out world where this statement…”The tribunal makes no finding that Dr Psaroudakis is a racist but is satisfied that he is someone who is quite comfortable with using discriminatory language”…actually makes sense to some people.
