***FOR UPDATE SEE BELOW***
Islamic proselytizer Dentist Omer Butt (brother of "reformed terrorist - Hassam Butt) is once again being true to his last name as he continues to insist upon shrouding non-veil wearing muslim women and 'de-jewelry-ise' men before he will perform any dentistry on them.
Way back in September of 2007 I wrote about this obnoxious, unprofessional man. Clearly instead of following General Denistry Council standards - he chooses to adhere to the Code of Ethics of The Muslim Doctors and Dentists Association UK (M.D.D.A. UK) where I recently exposed:
"Please note under section 2 Objects and powers that their main object is to ADVANCE THE ISLAMIC RELIGION IN THE UK and to promote and preserve the good health of MUSLIMS in the UK.
2. Objects and powers
2.1 The objects of the association shall be:-
2.1.1. To advance the Islamic religion in the practice of medicine in the United Kingdom
2.1.2. To advance medical education in relation to the doctrines, practices and traditions of the Islamic religion.
2.1.3. To promote research in various aspects of medical science and to disseminate and publish the useful results of such research.
2.1.4. To promote the preservation and protection of the good health of Muslims in the United Kingdom.
(As an aside - NO WHERE IS IT FOUND THAT THE MUSLIM DOCTORS AND DENTISTS HAVE AS THEIR PRIME OBJECTIVE THE GOOD HEALTH OF THE NON MUSLIM BRITISH PEOPLE- in fact- the British people in general are not even given a mention as only muslims are a worthwhile. It is obvious that this lack of concern, by muslim doctors, for non muslim patients in not exclusive just to the UK but would extend worldwide.)
So here we are - nearly four years later (see below) and this bullying healthcare provider is still thumbing his nose at the British laws governing dentistry - despite a "warning" from the UK General Dentistry Council (GDC)and STILL coercing his patients to abide by Islamic rules.
"Dr Omer Butt ordered female patients to wear headscarves and forced men to take off gold jewellery before allowing them into the dentists' chair. He even kept a box full of hijabs at his practice so he could lend them to women before checking their teeth."
For the second time Omer Butt appeared before the GDC panel - the panel concluded:
......that Butt, of Prestwich, Greater Manchester, sought to impose a dress code on Muslim patients while working at the Unsworth Smile Clinic in Bury, Greater Manchester, between April 2005 and June 2007.
The GDC committee found: 'Your evidence was that you regard yourself as a Muslim first and a dentist second, and it is clear that you were using your position as a dentist to seek to influence patients as to non-clinical issues.
'You have explained that you had a moral and religious obligation to persuade other Muslims to comply with Islamic requirements.
'You admitted that you would offer rewards to some patients who complied with the dress code.
'The committee concludes that these actions are more consistent with a person who has gone beyond mere persuasion or request and is seeking to impose a dress code.'
The committee heard how the dentist, who is the older brother of extremist Hassan Butt, put up signs asking women to cover their heads in his surgery and asking Muslims to observe religious law.
'Your evidence was that issues in respect of dress code would be raised with patients on a frequent basis,' the committee said.
.....The GDC panel, which is sitting in London, will now consider whether this impaired Dr Butt's fitness to practise and, if so, what penalty to impose on him."
Thus we have overt Islamic fanaticism by Dr. (and I use the word loosely) Omer Butt - it will be interesting to see if this panel has the guts to actually 'strike off' this religious zealot. A large fine would also be in order. But past performance of UK officials in disciplining muslims - using lame excuses to explain muslim bad behaviour- does not bode well for real punishment.
It is also high time that the British General Medical Council and the General Dentisty Council review the Muslim Doctors and Dentists Association of the UK - as clearly any member of this group would also consider him or herself as a muslim first and a doctor/dentist second. This group should be banned or forced to change their Code of Ethics.
But don't hold your breath waiting for that to happen.

Radical Muslim dentist refused to treat patients unless they wore traditional Islamic dress Dentist Omer Butt faces being struck off after refusing to treat women patients not wearing a headscarf A dentist faces being struck off after refusing to treat Muslim patients unless they wore Islamic dress. Dr Omer Butt ordered female patients to wear headscarves and forced men to take off gold jewellery before allowing them into the dentists' chair.. He even kept a box full of hijabs at his practice so he could lend them to women before checking their teeth. Butt enforced his religious dress code despite previously being warned by the General Dental Council for the same offence. The dentist ordered two women to wear head scarves before he would see them and their families, the professional conduct committee of the GDC found. One woman was forced to leave the clinic in pain after refusing to cover her head while another wore the garment but was outraged after Butt asked her son if he prayed. The panel concluded that Butt, of Prestwich, Greater Manchester, sought to impose a dress code on Muslim patients while working at the Unsworth Smile Clinic in Bury, Greater Manchester, between April 2005 and June 2007. The GDC committee found: 'Your evidence was that you regard yourself as a Muslim first and a dentist second, and it is clear that you were using your position as a dentist to seek to influence patients as to non-clinical issues. 'You have explained that you had a moral and religious obligation to persuade other Muslims to comply with Islamic requirements. 'You admitted that you would offer rewards to some patients who complied with the dress code. 'The committee concludes that these actions are more consistent with a person who has gone beyond mere persuasion or request and is seeking to impose a dress code.' The committee heard how the dentist, who is the older brother of extremist Hassan Butt, put up signs asking women to cover their heads in his surgery and asking Muslims to observe religious law. 'Your evidence was that issues in respect of dress code would be raised with patients on a frequent basis,' the committee said. 'It may be that you were not successful in every case and the committee has heard that some female Muslim patients were treated without wearing a head scarf. 'Nonetheless, the committee is satisfied that you had a general policy to seek to impose a dress code with the intention that the patient in question would agree to it.' The GDC panel, which is sitting in London, will now consider whether this impaired Dr Butt's fitness to practise and, if so, what penalty to impose on him. This is the second time that the dentist has appeared before a disciplinary committee for his stance on traditional Muslim dress. In September 2007, Butt received an admonition from the GDC after being found guilty of discriminating against a female patient by refusing to treat her unless she wore 'appropriate Islamic dress'. The patient said staff at his clinic told her Muslim women had to wear a head scarf and Muslim men could not wear gold jewellery. ***07/04/09 UPDATE*** TO NO SURPRISE - Dr BUTT HAS BEEN ALLOWED TO CONTINUE TO PRACTISE - apparently the Coucil believe he has "changed his ways".
