A CONTROVERSIAL doctor from Knighton has launched a stinging attack on the General Medical Council (GMC), saying that it started a ‘witch hunt’ against her, and was showing “symptoms of an advanced senile dementia.”
Dr Sarah Myhill, who has a practice in Llangunllo, near Knighton was deemed to be putting patients at risk by the GMC in April last year.
At one point it suspended the doctor from practice over her specialist treatment of chronic fatigue syndrome.
But in a ‘U-turn verdict’ last month Dr Myhill was told by the GMC that all sanctions previously imposed had been revoked.
Dr Myhill said: “The GMC has been incompetently prosecuting me since 2001. In doing so it has broken its own procedures and the laws of the land.
"Allegations against me have been vexatious, inconsequential and often untrue.
“The GMC is a dysfunctional organisation, not fit for purpose.”
