Karen Clark, 41, turned to theft and violence after spiralling into alcoholism
A doctor who was jailed for assaults on police officers and nurses has had her suspension from the profession extended by six months.
She punched one nurse in the head, kicked another, dug her nails into the arm of a third and pushed a fourth.The hospital medic, who worked at Glasgow Royal Infirmary, also racked up convictions for attacking police officers, possessing cocaine and being found drunk behind the wheel of her car. "Dr Clark's recent lack of engagement, along with her failure to provide the tribunal with evidence of remediation, led the tribunal to conclude that her behaviour had come perilously close to crossing the threshold of erasure.
The hearing was told Dr Clark was making progress in her recovery but she acknowledged that her fitness to practice remained impaired.
