Doctor who removed ovaries without consent to face new hearing

The General Medical Council won its appeal after a judge found the original tribunal made clear factual errors and failed to weigh key evidence.

Summary
A doctor who admitted removing two women's ovaries without their consent is to face a fresh medical tribunal after a High Court judge ruled that parts of an earlier decision in his case were "wrong or unjust". Ali Shokouh-Amiri, a consultant gynaecologist who previously worked at Guernsey's Princess Elizabeth Hospital, was found guilty of misconduct by a Medical Practitioners Tribunal in February 2025 and given a warning. But the panel concluded that his fitness to practise was not impaired.
