An NHS GP has been suspended after telling a junior doctor she looked like Beyonce, and rating her clothes as 'functional but not wow'
Dr Raviraj Karkera, who was at the Verwood Surgery in Dorset, told a junior doctor that she had "hair like Beyoncé" and that she should "let it down" and "work it".
He also insisted on rating her clothes on another occasion, telling her that one outfit was "functional but not wow". He has been suspended from working for a doctor for four months, although he retired in October ahead of the tribunal.
