The consultant has been identified as Dr Suhail Anjum.The incident was witnessed by a colleague, Nurse NT, who reported seeing Anjum and the nurse, referred to as Nurse C, in a compromising position.<\/p>\n<p>Poll<\/p>\n<p>Do you think stricter hospital monitoring is needed to prevent misconduct?<\/p>\n<p>According to BBC, the consultant anaesthetist had said he needed a &#8220;comfort break&#8221; and asked another nursing colleague to monitor the male patient halfway through the procedure.Instead, Anjum went to another operating theatre at the hospital in Ashton-under-Lyne where he had sexual activity with a woman referred to in the hearing as Nurse C.According to a report in Daily Mail, Anjum, who now works in Pakistan, said, &#8220;he felt shame and guilt at this horribly embarrassing incident, I don&#8217;t know why it happened.
