Require visible GMC/GDC/NMC numbers when offering Aesthetics/Cosmetics treatment

Require visible GMC/GDC/NMC numbers when offering Aesthetics/Cosmetics treatment — 22 signatures. Status: open.

Petition background

Require anyone calling themselves a healthcare professional while offering aesthetic or cosmetic treatments to display their current GMC, NMC or GDC number next to their name on all advertising and promotions.

Additional details

I'm a UK-registered doctor. I want aesthetic care to be safer for patients. Too many people book treatments from titles that look official. Having a live GMC, NMC or GDC number next to the name would let patients check before they book. An overseas degree can be real but does not always mean UK registration. We believe this rule would help patients without stopping anyone who is properly registered.
