Pre hearing information

Allegation

The tribunal will inquire into the allegation that, on 19 August 2015, Dr Patel made amendments to Patient A’s medical records in respect of consultations held on 26 May 2015 and 10 June 2015. It is alleged that Dr Patel failed to add the text as a new entry and indicate that the amendment was made retrospectively.

It is alleged that Dr Patel made the amendments to avoid criticism of his care of Patient A and that his actions were dishonest.
