Concerning Mohammed F Siddiqui, radiographer (Health and Care Professions Council RA28444).

Decision date: 15 January 2024 · Hearing started 15 January 2024

In plain English

The HCPTS review panel found that radiographer Mohammed F Siddiqui remained impaired after earlier findings of wide-ranging lack of competence and sexually motivated misconduct. It found no meaningful compliance with his conditions, insufficient insight and remediation, and imposed a 12-month suspension from 11 February 2024.

Charges

The underlying matters concerned wide-ranging lack of competence and sexually motivated misconduct, including contacting and emailing a patient, arranging and performing an intimate internal scan without clinical justification, authorisation, a chaperone or other safeguards, using inappropriate language, and later clinical-practice and compliance concerns.

Findings

Earlier panels found wide-ranging lack of competence and sexually motivated misconduct. At this review, the Panel found that the Registrant had not meaningfully complied with the Conditions of Practice Order, had not fully remediated, lacked insight and continued to present a repetition risk. It found current impairment on both personal and public components, replaced the conditions with a 12-month Suspension Order effective when the current order expired on 11 February 2024, and required a further review before expiry.
