Freeman's legal team says it is 'disappointed' by today's High Court judgement cycling

Mr Justice Fordham said there was"nothing within the tribunal's approach, reasoning or conclusions" that was"wrong" and"still less any respect" that would undermine the decision.

During the lengthy tribunal Freeman had denied the central charge about the purpose of the Testogel order, but admitted 18 of the 22 charges against him, ultimately saying he disagreed "vehemently" with the ruling and lodging an appeal.That appeal, however, was today rejected, a High Court judgement his legal team said they were"disappointed by".

Neil Dalton, the chair of the Medical Practitioners Tribunal Service Hearing, said that "Freeman's behaviour is fundamentally incompatible with continued registration" and determined that"erasure is the only sufficient sanction which would protect patients, maintain public confidence in the profession and send a clear message to Freeman, the profession and the public."
