Complaints against medical practitioners

Complaints / Disciplinary Proceedings

Complaints against medical practitioners are dealt with under Section 40 of the Medical Registration Act 1997. The Complaints Committee can only proceed with the investigation after it has received an official complaint in writing and supported by a Statutory Declaration.

The complainant must state the full facts of his case and his allegations clearly in his letter of complaint against the doctor.

The Complaints Committee shall inform the doctor and the complainant of the outcome of their investigations when it is completed.
