How we investigate concerns
We receive complaints or concerns about many doctors throughout their careers.
But we only investigate when these raise issues about a doctor’s ability to practise safely or threaten public confidence in the profession.
This guide will take you through the key milestones of our investigation process.
It explains:
- what happens if we open an investigation to look into a concern about your practice
- how we investigate a concern
- what an investigation might mean for you.
