UK – Doctor, 47, is struck off after he made £72,000 signing more than 400 bogus sick notes for holidaymakers who were claiming compensation through his wife’s legal firm

Mail Online

A doctor who made £72,000 signing more than 400 bogus sick notes for his wife’s legal firm has been struck off the medical register.

Dr Zuber Bux, 47, filled in false illness reports from holidaymakers claiming compensation from travel firms through his solicitor wife Sehana’s law business.

Over four years Dr Bux, a GP from Blackburn, Lancashire, made about £72,000 writing more than 400 reports but did not inform holiday companies or the courts that his wife worked for AMS, the law firm that instructed him.

A Medical Practitioners Tribunal in Manchester informed Dr Bux that his name has been erased from the medical register due to his ‘dishonesty’ and for the ‘protection of the public’.
