The first known complaint against disgraced doctor Sam Eljamel during his time working in Dundee was made more than two decades ago, The Courier can reveal.
One patient raised concerns about the ex-NHS Tayside neurosurgeon to a medical watchdog 12 years before he was suspended, sparking further questions over the scandal’s timeline.
Data from the General Medical Council (GMC) shows a complaint in 2001, giving extra clarity after we revealed a grievance was flagged up some time prior to 2008.
