This is incorrect. There was no suspension. The GMC made a mistake and confused us with a medical school chartered in St. Lucia. The GMC had told us that a third party had contacted them and provided erroneous information about us. The GMC had made an administrative error and corrected it.

There was recently some question regarding the staus of St Christopher's
College of Luton. However, this has now been resolved.
Graduates of St Christopher's College of Luton have their degrees awarded by
St Christopher's College of Medicine, Dakar, Senegal. This is WHO listed,
and as such, we would accept these degrees for the purposes of limited
registration.
I hope that my response has been helpful. If you have any other queries,
please contact me and I will do my best to help.
