Doctor faces losing license for praying with patients
(CHRISTIAN POST) – A Christian doctor is under investigation after a complaint was filed accusing him of praying and “evangelizing” to patients.
Dr. Richard Scott, 58, a general practitioner at the Bethesda Medical Centre in Margate, Kent, England, is the subject of a fitness to practice inquiry launched by the General Medical Council after a complaint was filed by the National Secular Society.
He is also reportedly being investigated by the National Health Service in England, according to The Telegraph.
The National Secular Society said in the complaint filed in May that Scott, who has worked as a doctor for more than 20 years, made a “vulnerable” patient feel “discomfort at the use of prayer.” The allegation was made to the NSS by an acquaintance of the patient.
