The General Dental Council is to decide what sanctions to take against a dentist found guilty of breaking wind in front of colleagues and patients.

The GDC ruled that Matthew Walton also made rude comments about patients and made v-signs behind their back. The offences took place at his practice in Shropshire in 2006 and 2007. Nurse Carol Stokes, who used to work with Mr Walton, said: “The smell made us feel sick. But he found it funny.”

Winston Solicitors handled our recent house purchase and sale and provided an excellent service throughout. Sidraa Razaq, supported by Tom McIlroy, exhibited an outstanding professionalism, expertise, and responsiveness from te moment we first made contact, all of which made what was at times a less than straightforward transaction much easier to navigate. I'd have no hesitation in recommending them to others.

I recently contracted Winston Solicitors to support me in obtaining a grant of probate following the death of a parent. I worked closely with Emily and found her to be supportive, have great communication and be able to navigate the IHT and probate processes very efficiently.
