    Erasure(struck off the register)

    The NMC's Fitness to Practise Committee found that Mr O'Brien remains impaired and replaced his existing six-month suspension order with a striking-off order. The panel noted he had continued to disengage with the regulator, had not provided evidence of insight, reflection or steps to strengthen his practice, and remained liable to repeat the failings found proved. The strike-off takes effect at the end of 14 April 2026, when the current suspension order expires.
