A misconduct panel warned Dr Andrew Gregg his conduct 'must not be repeated'.

A consultant anaesthetist who made a "hasty" decision to withdraw treatment from a leukaemia patient has been issued a warning by a misconduct panel.

The panel found: "Dr Gregg's failure to consult with colleagues resulted in a hasty decision to withdraw active treatment which would inevitably result in Patient A's death. The panel said Dr Gregg had "demonstrated a high level of meaningful insight into his failings" and "six years had elapsed without there being any repetition of Dr Gregg's misconduct".
