Pathologist Dr Freddy Patel has been suspended for four months by the General Medical Council.
The charges related to his post-mortem examination of murder victim Sally White and claims he made on his CV.
Dr Patel was criticised for his post-mortem examination of Ian Tomlinson, who died at the G20 protests.
The GMC had earlier ruled that his fitness to practise was impaired having been found guilty of gross professional misconduct.
Dr Patel conducted the original post-mortem examination on Ian Tomlinson but his suspension is nothing to do with this.
He concluded Mr Tomlinson died from heart disease but this finding was contradicted by another post-mortem examination which blamed abdominal bleeding.
An inquest into Mr Tomlinson's death is currently under way.
The allegations to be upheld by the GMC related to Dr Patel's handling of a post-mortem examination on Ms White, who was murdered by Anthony Hardy in north London in 2002.
