Profile
About Dr Iqbal
Dr Shehzad Iqbal
Founder, author and course facilitator
Dr Iqbal has designed and delivered ethics, probity and professionalism training for healthcare professionals since 2020, working with practitioners regulated in six countries. He combines clinical practice with formal postgraduate training in healthcare law and ethics, and writes and reviews every course on this site.
That combination is the point. A clinician who has practised knows what a consultation actually looks like when a boundary is tested or a record is written under pressure. Postgraduate training in healthcare law and ethics is what turns that into material a Board will recognise as engagement with the standard, rather than a general essay about professionalism.

How the guides are written and checked
Written to the published standards
Each guide is written to the National Board’s own code of conduct and Ahpra’s published guidance, and links to them so you can read the source.
Sources listed
Each guide lists the pages it draws on: the codes, Ahpra’s pages, the legislation and the complaints bodies’ own guidance.
Checked independently before publication
New guides and courses are checked against the regulators’ own pages before they are published, and corrected where the check finds an error.
Dated and reviewed
Pages carry the date they were published and the date they were last reviewed.
