Church Langley doctor allowed to return to medical profession
Health / Tue 8th Jul 2025 at 02:36pm
A HARLOW doctor who was suspended for a year for being on drugs while seeing patients has been allowed to return to the profession reports the BBC.
Nathan Sandles was found acting “drowsy, sleepy and disorientated” while on shift at Church Langley Medical Centre in Harlow.
The GP had prescribed medication for himself by falsely using a patient’s name, the Medical Practitioners Tribunal heard last year.
A review hearing, held last month, determined Dr Sandles’ “fitness to practise was not impaired by reason of misconduct and conviction”.

I would have thought you would get struck off under the misuse of drugs act,plus I thought it was illegal to write a prescription for yourself under another patients name . If You did that Ted you would be imprisoned Plus the fact that by what the article suggests is that he wasn't compusmentous.I hope he wasn't putting placebo's in there place. Or perhaps he needed some leisure time after working all the hours God sends . Chill out Nathan.Next you will be telling us that patients were leaving all there worldly goods to him There was a doctor in the news a while ago I think his name was Harold Shipman, displaying the same sort of behaviour .Mind you I think Harold was getting backhanders as well . Why are these badly behaved doctors allowed back in to the system by the Professionals. It sounds like one rule for them and one for us. Quickly sweep it under the carpet he is one of ours.Shame on you for letting him back in .🤕
