Dr Daniel Ubani was struck off by the General Medical Council in 2010
The German-trained locum doctor who killed a British patient on his first NHS shift has been allowed to help teach doctors.
Dr Daniel Ubani was struck off by the General Medical Council in 2010 – two years after he accidentally killed 70-year-old David Gray with a massive overdose of diamorphine – but the German authorities said he could keep practising.
Now we can reveal that Ubani has lectured at an event accredited by the German Chamber of Doctors, called the Ärztekammer.
He spoke at a one-day event called Patients With A Migrant Background, lecturing on cleanliness in hospitals.
Last night Mr Gray’s furious son Rory said: ‘For Germany to allow someone such as Ubani to train students is repugnant.
‘That Ubani would take up such a role speaks volumes about his lack of insight into what he did in the UK and his total lack of contrition.’
The symposium, held in Munster, was organised by the Nigerian Medical Association in Germany. Ubani is Nigerian by birth.
Ubani spoke on Hygiene In Nigerian Hospitals, Medical Clinics And Health Centres. Mr Gray pointed out that Ubani’s clinic in Witten, near Dortmund, was heavily criticised in 2010 after inspectors found dirty needles on the premises and opiate drugs not stored safely.
This was two years after he accidentally killed 70-year-old David Gray with a massive overdose of diamorphine – but the German authorities said he could keep practising
A spokesman for the Ärztekammer said it ‘has always advocated that Dr Ubani undergo a test to gauge his medical skills’, but this request ‘has been denied twice in court’.
Ubani was unavailable for comment last night.
