Medical regulators were right to ban a doctor who accepted instructions from a firm where his wife was a salaried partner, the High Court has ruled.
Mr Justice Mostyn dismissed an appeal from Dr Zuber Bux against the findings of the Medical Practitioners Tribunal, agreeing that he dishonestly and deliberately wrote formulaic reports diagnosing food poisoning.
Bux had paused medico-legal work in 2011 but began five years later to accept instructions solely from Lancashire firm AMS Solicitors Limited, where his wife Sehana Bux was then a partner.
The tribunal had found that the doctor acted in a state of conflict of interest and made diagnoses without proper evidence and without looking at any range of opinions. Between 2016 and 2017 he wrote reports in 684 cases and was paid £180 for each. A total of £123,120 was paid into a service company, Bux Incorporated Ltd, of which he held 55% and his wife 45%.
