Jailed paedophile doctor Timothy Healy was fined for prescription irregularities and reprimanded for thuggish behaviour during his career as a GP, it has emerged.
The details about Healy were published last Thursday in a report commissioned by the North Central London Strategic Health Authority (NCLSHA).
In 1982, the Family Practitioner Committee decided to take no action against Healy after an investigation into a forged prescription. Concerns were first raised by the Prescription Pricing Authority.
More recently, Healy was fined £1,500 in 1996 for issuing prescriptions to five people who were not his patients and issuing unnecessary prescriptions seven times to two separate patients.
And the report also details an incident in 1982 when Healy fell out with the senior partner at the GP practice in Ballards Lane, Finchley. He took a gang of three young men to the senior partner's house, where they kicked and thumped his front door and let the air out of his car's tyres. The standing committee of Barnet Local Medical Committee decided not to penalise Healy, but gave him a verbal reprimand.
The aim of the NCLSHA report was to establish if Healy could have been stopped from drugging and indecently assaulting young men at his surgery in Southern Road, East Finchley.
Healy was jailed for 12 years last September, but had his sentence reduced to eight years on appeal.
