What does “suspended from practice” mean?

The regulator imposed a fixed-term suspension in this decision. Its start date, appeal provisions and any later review affect whether it is currently in force. Check the official register for the practitioner's current status.

Concerning Shahmeen Rasul, doctor (General Medical Council 7836122).

Decision date: 15 April 2026 · Hearing started 7 April 2026 and ended 15 April 2026

In plain English

The April 2026 tribunal imposed a three-month suspension following a dishonest professional-reference finding. A later review on 31 July 2026 found Shahmeen Rasul no longer impaired and allowed the suspension to expire. The GMC register now shows registration with a licence to practise. The earlier finding remains a historical outcome, not a statement of current suspension.
