GMC to investigate ‘stalker’ doctor who shared patient’s records | NHS

The UK medical regulator General Medical Council is investigating a doctor from Cambridge’s Addenbrooke’s hospital who accessed personal health details of a woman who was dating the doctor’s former partner. The victim filed a complaint outlining multiple breaches of her medical records by the doctor, who later spread some personal information and lied about the sources. The doctor could potentially face a ban on practicing medicine. Addenbrooke’s hospital issued an apology to the victim for the data breach.
