Erasure(struck off the register)
The MPTS tribunal found that Dr Andrew Neil Hopper's fitness to practise was impaired by reason of his criminal conviction. In September 2025 he was convicted at Truro Crown Court of two counts of fraud by false representation, over insurance claims worth more than £460,000, and three counts of possession of extreme pornographic images, and was sentenced to 32 months in prison. The tribunal found he had shown no meaningful insight and erased his name from the medical register.
