For more than twenty years, Zholia Alemi worked as a psychiatrist for the NHS. She practiced the length and breadth of the country, treating vulnerable patients with dementia, learning disabilities and mental illness. And then she was caught in a lie.

Alemi was found guilty of forging a dementia patient鈥檚 will. But this deception was only the beginning. From Crowd Network, Doctor of Deception investigates how one woman鈥檚 web of lies reveals historic flaws in the system designed to keep patients safe.

If you were treated by Zholia Alemi, or have concerns about her practice, there is a support page available on the General Medical Council鈥檚 website: https://www.gmc-uk.org/news/news-archive/zholia-alemi---information-for-patients
