Dr. Varaha Konathala, a 66-year-old doctor, was accused of inappropriately touching a female patient during a consultation for ankle pain. Despite his denial of the allegations, the Medical Practitioners Tribunal found evidence supporting the claims, indicating that his actions were sexually motivated. After serving a one-year suspension, he was allowed to return to practice as the tribunal assessed he posed no public risk. This decision is being challenged by the General Medical Council, highlighting concerns over public safety and the credibility of the medical profession.
Dr Konathala's actions during a medical consultation have been found inappropriate, raising concerns about public safety and professional ethics in the medical field.
A woman detailed her discomfort and shock during the consultation, noting that Dr Konathala's behavior seemed more like an opportunistic assault rather than a medical procedure.
