Alaaeldin Kamel

Introduction

Dr Alaaeldin Kamel is a doctor who was erased from the medical register by a Medical Practitioners Tribunal Service (MPTS) panel on 12 June 2026, after a substantive hearing which ran from 4 to 12 June 2026. The case concerned two separate allegations of dishonesty: an answer given on an onboarding form submitted to an NHS trust, and a series of fabricated reports which Dr Kamel sent to the General Medical Council (GMC) for use at his own regulatory hearings. The tribunal found the fabricated reports proved and dishonest, on Dr Kamel’s own admissions, and concluded that his conduct was incompatible with continued registration. He was struck off the register — the outcome the regulator calls erasure — and his fitness to practise was found impaired by reason of misconduct.

Background Information

Dr Kamel was registered with the GMC under the number 7486732 and practised as a doctor in the United Kingdom. The events that led him before the regulator spanned roughly a year. In December 2023, while dealing with University Hospitals Bristol and Weston Foundation Trust, he submitted an onboarding form on which he answered ‘No’ to a question. The GMC later alleged that this answer was dishonest. From October 2024 to October 2025, Dr Kamel was subject to an interim order which imposed a condition on his registration. During that same period, he produced four reports purporting to come from a colleague, with dates falling between October 2024 and October 2025, and sent them to the GMC so that they could be relied upon at Interim Orders Tribunal hearings and at a Medical Practitioners Tribunal hearing in his own case. The colleague, in fact, had not provided those reports.

The Controversy or Incident That Led to Their Cancellation

Adjudicated vs. alleged. Note these are regulatory findings by the MPTS tribunal on the civil standard, not criminal convictions; the fabricated-reports dishonesty was found proved on Dr Kamel’s own admission; on the separate onboarding-form charge the ‘No’ answer was proved but dishonesty was NOT proved — that element remains an unproven allegation.

The GMC brought two strands of allegation against Dr Kamel. The first concerned the onboarding form submitted to University Hospitals Bristol and Weston Foundation Trust on or around 9 December 2023. The regulator alleged that Dr Kamel answered ‘No’ to a question on that form and did so dishonestly. The tribunal found, on Dr Kamel’s admission, that he submitted the form answering ‘No’. However, it found not proved the allegations that he knew the relevant information and that his answer of ‘No’ was dishonest. On this strand, the dishonesty element therefore remained unproven.

The second strand was far more extensive. The GMC alleged that Dr Kamel fabricated four reports purporting to be from a colleague, dated between October 2024 and October 2025; that he sent those fabricated reports to the GMC for use at Interim Orders Tribunal hearings and a Medical Practitioners Tribunal hearing; that in submitting them he breached a condition imposed on his registration by an Interim Orders Tribunal; that he knew the colleague had not provided the reports; and that his actions were dishonest. The tribunal found all of this proved, on Dr Kamel’s admissions — including that he knew the reports had not come from the colleague and that his actions were dishonest.

Turning to impairment, the tribunal found Dr Kamel’s fitness to practise impaired by reason of misconduct. It described a pattern of persistent and repeated dishonesty over a period of about 12 months, placed the conduct at the higher end of seriousness, and noted limited insight and remediation together with a high risk of repetition. The tribunal also identified aggravating factors: the behaviour was persistent or repeated; it was premeditated; it showed a reckless disregard for patient safety or professional standards; and it undermined a system designed to protect the public. In mitigation, the tribunal found there was no evidence of any prior fitness to practise concerns or findings against Dr Kamel, and it considered in full the challenging personal and family circumstances which had an impact on him.

Public Reaction and Consequences

The determination itself records the tribunal’s assessment rather than wider public commentary, and the seriousness with which the panel viewed the misconduct is evident in its reasoning and its outcome. Having found a sustained course of dishonest conduct directed at the regulator itself, the tribunal concluded that Dr Kamel’s behaviour was fundamentally incompatible with his continued registration. The immediate consequence was the most severe sanction available: a direction that his name be erased from the Medical Register, taking effect as his being struck off. Erasure means Dr Kamel is no longer permitted to practise medicine in the United Kingdom, and the sanction also carries real weight for any future consideration of his status, since the tribunal identified a high risk of repetition and limited insight and remediation.

Current Status

As of the decision date of 12 June 2026, Dr Kamel stands erased from the medical register and cannot practise as a doctor in the UK. Erasure is otherwise indefinite, but it can be reviewed after a minimum of five years; any application for restoration would fall to be considered at such a review, and there is no indication in the determination that a return to practice is imminent. His case is recorded on the public register as an erasure decision of 12 June 2026 arising from the MPTS substantive hearing of 4 to 12 June 2026.

Impact on Their Career/Life

The erasure ends Dr Kamel’s ability to work as a doctor in the United Kingdom, bringing a medical career to a halt by order of the regulator. Before this case he had no history of fitness to practise concerns or findings, which makes the loss of registration the defining event of his professional record. The tribunal accepted that he had faced challenging personal and family circumstances which had an impact on him, and considered those circumstances in full, but it nonetheless concluded that the pattern of persistent and repeated dishonesty over about 12 months sat at the higher end of seriousness and could not be reconciled with continued registration. Any prospect of practising again depends on a successful review after the five-year minimum period has elapsed.
