A SOUTHALL psychiatrist who groped a nurse and then kissed a
policeman’s boot to beg forgiveness has been struck off for lying to
get work.
Dr Idowu Otote, 43, of Rutland Road, was banned for 12 months in 2006
for failing to keep his skills up to scratch.
He then claimed in application forms to Gwent and Maudsley NHS trusts
that he would be free to practice again by November 17, 2006.
Dr Otote admitted making two inaccurate job applications, but denied
dishonesty on the basis it was all a misunderstanding.
He told the GMC he had sent the applications using a draft model
answer to the questions, but forgot to check it before he sent them,
but he could not explain why there were still “significant
differences” between the two.
Panel Chair Howard Freeman said the GMC had “serious concerns” about
the way Dr Otote deliberately misled the two health trusts, and found
his fitness to practise was impaired.
