A doctor accused of running an unusual nocturnal practice has been struck off after a court found she was under the influence of her "paranoid" and "delusional" husband.

Gina Windsor, a general practitioner, came to the attention of the Health Care Complaints Commission following an anonymous complaint that she was sleeping in her car or the nursing homes where she practised, eating dinner at those homes, wearing the same clothes for a week and working all through the night.

It was alleged that she sometimes saw nursing home patients late at night when they were asleep.

But it was her response to the complaint that prompted the health watchdog to seek her deregistration.
