UAE blacklists doctors for violating licenses

By IANS,

Abu Dhabi : Four doctors in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) have been blacklisted for violating their license conditions.

The Medical Licenses Committee under the ministry of health suspended the doctors, shut down their clinics, cancelled their licenses and referred their cases to the public prosecutor after reviewing complaints from the government.

One doctor was suspended because of the huge number of sick leave taken by him and his subordinate employees. A laser specialist running a private medical centre was suspended for violating licence conditions and “for the welfare of the patients”.

The committee also suspended a dentist after receiving reports that he was “always unavailable”, while an orthodontist was also suspended for violating his licence.
