General Medical Council
Regulating doctors, ensuring good medical practice
We register doctors to practise in the UK and have the powers to either issue a warning to a doctor, remove the doctor from the register, suspend or place conditions on a doctor's registration.
Advice for patients, doctors and other health professionals who have concerns about a doctor is contained in our Making a complaint section.
You can look up the results of Fitness to Practise hearings and Interim Order Panels on the Decisions page.
We provide a range of support and information for witnesses who attend our hearings. Find out what to expect in our Help for witnesses section.
In this section we explain what doctors who have been referred to the GMC should expect during the investigation process and if the case goes to a hearing.
