"#Malpractice how did they not take her pass off a straight away," questioned a third.
While a fourth commented: "Despite some very good scenes and sharp writing, it got too muddled and rushed by the end and some elements were preposterous. Also, what was with all the needless gore?"
Meanwhile, viewers were left 'screaming at the TV' when last week's instalment aired.
Doctor Lucinda Edwards, the protagonist, found herself entangled in a drug ring that supplies fentanyl to drug addicts – following the death of fellow GP, Rob.
Whilst at a pharmacy, Lucinda attempted to secure payment for distributing the drugs and turns on her phone, to discover missed calls from her partner Tom.
In a later scene, Lucinda's daughter Abi was seen crawling under the bed before Lucinda left.
Shortly after, Tom discovered Abi sat motionless – with a packet of pills in her hand.
Malpractice continues on ITV1 and ITVX.
