THE DAILY TELEGRAPH: A GP told a troubled patient that he could beneft [sic] more from Christianity than his own faith, a hearing was told.
Dr Richard Scott spoke about the matter of religion to the 24-year-old, who has been described as "suicidal" and "vulnerable", at the end of a consultation at his surgery, the General Medical Council (GMC) heard.
After allegedly being told ''Go for it'' by the patient, the GP is said to have told him faith in Christianity may help him overcome personal problems.
But the 51-year-old doctor ''crossed the line'' in discussing his own personal religious beliefs with a vulnerable patient and even went on to suggest he might benefit from a Christian faith - above his own religion. » | Thursday, September 22, 2011
