Four in 10 doctors warned about their fitness to practice are from abroad, it has emerged.
The General Medical Council has issued ‘undertakings’ – the final sanction short of striking them off – to 476 doctors.
But amid a crackdown on doctors unable to speak English properly, it can revealed that 43 per cent of those sanctioned are from overseas.
The GMC has released a list of the 476 doctors in the UK currently ‘on undertakings’ after concerns were raised about their conduct.
It means they have allowed the doctor to continue to treat patients, but under strict supervision and a raft of restrictions.
Undertakings are seen as a ‘final chance’ rather than strike doctors off the Medical Register.
A Freedom of Information request reveals that there are 476 doctors in the UK still working ‘on undertakings’ – with 43 per cent having been trained abroad.
In total 135 (28 per cent) of the doctors are from countries outside Europe, 66 (14 per cent) from EU countries, six from non-EU European counties (one per cent) and 269 (57 per cent) from the UK.
That means 207 of the doctors currently working under supervision are from abroad – a total of 43 per cent.
