Erasure(struck off the register)
The HCPTS panel found that Asima P Rafeeq dishonestly charged an excessive £34,000 for hearing aids and accepted an inflated deposit, whose cheque did not clear. It ordered striking off, with a separate interim suspension during the appeal period. An audiogram failing was proved but did not amount to misconduct, and lack of competence was not established. The other proved matters amounted to misconduct.
