A consultant gynaecologist has been found guilty of professional misconduct for carrying out unauthorised research on five female patients without their consent during a routine surgical procedure at St Luke’s Hospital in Kilkenny seven years ago.
A fitness-to-practise inquiry of the Medical Council found that three allegations of professional misconduct against Professor Ray O’Sullivan were proven beyond reasonable doubt.
