Dr Wolfson found guilty by General Medical Council

The Surbiton doctor who feared being struck off, has been cautioned after being found guilty of serious medical misconduct by the GMC.

After two years waiting for the hearing, Doctor Martin Wolfson who practices at the Claremont Medical Centre has finally put to rest his fears of being stuck off the medical register.

In 2003 the doctor hit a child while examining her at a clinic in Walton. The doctor admitted hitting her, but said he acted on impulse after the three-year-old child had kicked him in the groin.

The parents of Lahna Fahmi are said to be continuing with their plan to sue, claiming the child was traumatised and suffered a fever due to the doctors action.
