Dr Jerry Schwartz says he will appeal after being found guilty of breaching conditions on his registration by administering up to 100μg of fentanyl as conscious sedation.

The Sydney GP owns a brewery, a charter airline and 14 hotels, including the 35-storey Sofitel hotel on Darling Harbour in Sydney.

Despite Dr Schwartz having an estimated worth of $667 million, he has remained on the medical register, continuing to work as a part-time GP and cosmetic doctor.

According to the NSW Civil and Administrative Tribunal, he originally had conditions placed on him back in 2013 following a performance review amid concerns about his clinical judgement and prescribing records.
