It was due to an administrative issue
A doctor without a licence saw patients for three months in Nottinghamshire. A staff member who works for Nottinghamshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust and wishes to remain anonymous said they are "too angry for words" that this has happened. But the organisations itself said there were no concerns over his competency as they say it related to paperwork.
The Trust told patients it had "no concerns about the care [patients] received" as Dr Pierzchniak had a valid licence until February 18, 2022. It was found contact details were missing and he was suspended as soon as this was discovered. The GMC said the Trust has a "responsibility" to keep on top of this.A spokesperson for the GMC said: "It is mandatory for doctors to have a licence to practise in order to treat patients.
But a member of staff at the Trust said they have "zero confidence" in their management after this and how it's been dealt with. "I have zero confidence in management who put it down to be 'a small mistake' and refuse to put any new steps in place to prevent this happening again as he was a locum. I am too angry for words I am speaking out as who knows how many other doctors or nurses in the Trust are also unlicensed.
