Dr Ranj, who appeared on ITV's This Morning and Lorraine shows, sued Cartland, 42, last year.
He reported him to the General Medical Council over further online abuse.
Strictly star Dr Ranj, 46, told a panel: 'I suffer anxiety due to abhorrent things Dr Cartland said about me. This has been a horrific experience.'
Cartland, of Redditch, Worcs, claimed that X was a place for 'rigorous debate'.
He apologised and admitted: 'I have reacted unwisely online.'
He was struck off over fears he 'would behave in a similar way in future'.
Medical Practitioners Tribunal Service chairman Claire Lindley said: ''The Tribunal was concerned about the persistent, threatening and abusive harassment of four separate complaints, over a sustained period of time. Dr Cartland has not shown any recognition of the extent of the impact and his conduct demonstrates a blatant disregard for good medical practise.
'Given the marked lack of insight and remediation, the Tribunal was concerned that Dr Cartland would behave in a similar way in future. ''
Dr. Ranj Singh took part in Strictly Come Dancing in 2018, making it to week 7 before being eliminated.
He qualified as a doctor in 2003 and works as a children's doctor.

Bride leaves her groom and guests to have a haircut in the middle of her wedding day - before emerging with a drastically different evening look
A bride has divided opinion after she left her groom and guests to have a haircut in the middle of her wedding party - before returning with a dramatic 'second look'. Within a 30-minute window, newlywed Elly frantically touched up her makeup while hairdresser George Curran - the stylist behind Sofia Richie 's bob - chopped and styled her locks. In a now-viral video posted by the bride's makeup artist Katie Daisy, UK-based Elly can be heard saying: 'Not as short as Sofia, because I want something a bit different. I'm starting my own style.' Katie wrote: 'Anyone want some tequila? A second look in 30 minutes. The most iconic bride Elly. I would expect nothing less - the best energy. 'The wedding day look was a soft, romantic pink-toned look with a chic up do. 'For the evening, we changed into a bronzed look with nude lip paired with her very own "Elly" bob… by the hair stylist who cut Sofia Richie's bob.' As the nuptials were well underway, the alcohol was flowing and a tipsy Elly kept her glam squad entertained during the quick makeover. 'I don't know why I'm doing this,' she giggled. 'I got peer pressured into this. I feel a bit sick.' At the first chop, Elly exclaimed: 'Oh my god, that felt like a lot. My mum's going to kill me.' Sipping tequila shots all the while, Elly said: 'I really regret this. If I don't like it, can you give me free hair extensions next week?' But the final reveal proved worth the wait, with stylist George working soft, textured curls into the long bob. Katie also captured the moment in which the groom saw his wife's new hair for the first time as she came down an ornate wooden staircase. Beaming, he shouted: 'Oh my god!'. For confused viewers, makeup artist Katie clarified that Elly's new look was entirely planned and consensual and not, in fact, the product of the booze-filled ceremony. 'Elly was going to cut her hair before the honeymoon,' she wrote. 'Hair and makeup were given 30 minutes for the look change, we made it work, hence why all hands were on deck. 'Elly missed no more of her wedding party than any other bride would have done.' But the drama of the makeover was not lost on Elly herself, who asked in another video: 'Do you think it's a bit extra that I'm cutting my hair for my look?' To which Katie responded: 'You only have one wedding day.' Viewers, however, were divided. While many felt that Elly's decision was 'iconic', others deemed it a waste of time. One admirer asked 'Who is this queen?' while another called it an 'absolutely stunning transformation'. Many praised Elly's spontaneity, with one person writing: 'This is brave, no matter what I do to my hair it takes me a good week to get used to it. You looked beautiful!' Another wrote: 'Stunning! I love the final look. At first I was like "oh no, why cut it?" but it actually makes her face pop!' 'Who is this? I'm obsessed with her,' one commenter added. But some sceptics expressed concern about the time Elly spent away from her wedding guests. 'How much of your wedding did you miss out on to do this?' asked one, while another said: 'It's pretty but such a waste of time when you could be enjoying your day with your partner, friends and family.' Viewers were divided over Elly's decision, with many arguing she missed out on valuable time with her loved ones Before artist Katie clarified that Elly was more than comfortable with the move, commenters felt she might have been too tipsy. 'I think the tequila is in full effect,' wrote one, while a second added: 'Not sure this was a completely informed decision. Looks great.' But the majority of responders saw the light-hearted side of things. 'This is such a good idea,' one person said. 'If you want a big hair change before the wedding do it for the second part in case you regret it. 'But also it gives you the chance to do it and still get wedding pictures with it. This was definitely worth it, she looks stunning!' Although Elly's wedding day choices are likely too bold for most other brides, she pulled off the last-minute move marvelously.

Nathan Lyon's glamorous cricket WAG wife Emma officially launches her new career after giving up real estate
Emma Lyon is making waves in the influencer world. The mother-of-one, who shares a one-year-old daughter with cricketer Nathan Lyon, launched her new career with a sponsored Instagram post on Wednesday. The 32-year-old, who has left behind her career in real estate, modelled a series of ensembles from UK fashion brand Maebe. Among the chic looks was a cream wool crop top, which sells for $116, and a button-down white singlet, valued at $105. She also sported a jacket made of grey sweatshirt-type fabric, adorned with silver buttons, which retails for $116. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. 'Just the cosy winter knits your wardrobe needs,' the WAG wrote in the caption of her Instagram post. 'Thank you @maebestore for this perfect little parcel to come home to,' she added, while hashtagging the term 'gifted' to indicate the items were sent to her for free. It comes after Emma flaunted all the benefits of being a cricket WAG as she flew first class to England in May. Emma was travelling to the UK to attend the World Test Championship. As she documented her journey on Instagram she flaunted her wealth - showing off her expensive $22,000 accessories and $1,500 collection of in-flight skincare. Emma shared videos of herself cuddling up to her daughter as she arrived at the airport for her first-class Qantas flight. In one clip, she could be seen holding her bub as she stood on an escalator with a black Chanel bag worth a jaw-dropping $19,230. She also carried a tote bag from Goyard worth $3,725, for a total of $22,955 worth of accessories. But the luxuries didn't end there. Emma went on to share an inside look at her skincare bag, showing off a range of luxe products worth a total of $1,487. The most expensive of the items was a 'repairing and regenerative' face cream from Biologique Recherche, which retails for a whopping $390. She also included the full range of formulations from Rationale - Milk Concentrate ($214), Enriched Crème ($212), two serums ($206 and $204) and cleanser ($120). Emma also added Clarity Peptides from Medik8 ($101) to her skincare bag, as well as a $25 face mask from 111SKIN and a $15 lip balm from Lanolips. The WAG finished off her reel of content with a short clip showing her completely flawless and glowing complexion after lathering her face with the products. Emma finally confirmed she and Nathan welcomed a baby girl to the world in September 2023. They made the reveal in October 2024, with Nathan now a father to three girls as he shares two children with his ex-partner Mel Waring. Emma posted two images of her daughter to Instagram at the time, captioning the photos with 'Mini me'. In one of the pictures, the youngster could be seen wearing a T-shirt which read 'daddy's girl'. There was no indication Emma was expecting prior to her daughter's birth, with the glamour couple doing an amazing job of keeping the pregnancy under wraps. She attended the 2023 Ashes tour in the United Kingdom with the rest of the Australian team's WAGs after marrying Nathan in July 2022. Emma appeared to have carefully edited photos she posted on her Instagram to avoid any shots which would give away a pregnancy. Even when spotted by paparazzi, Emma was wearing an overcoat which would have covered any tell-tale signs. The fiercely private couple also kept their engagement a secret before they were eventually married. Emma and her bowling beau's relationship began in scandalous circumstances, as they had been caught kissing in Perth in late 2017 while Nathan was still with Mel. Mel detailed their heartbreaking split in a blog post in March 2018. She said on social media her pain was 'real and deep' and recounted nights when she would lie in bed with her children and cry. 'I didn't ask for this, this wasn't the way my life was supposed to be. He was my forever, he was my whole world,' she wrote. Mel has since found love with a new man, but has not revealed his identity. Nathan and Emma started dating in 2017 and bought their Sydney home together in 2020. Rumours started to swirl that their engagement was on in 2022. That was later

'And then they even saw each other on the outside before ITV invited them back to be part of Casa Amor. 'Now they're both in the main villa pretending like none of this ever happened but it's all entirely fake and ITV know about it. 'Viewers deserve to know it's all a huge sham.' COUPLING UP Lauren, 26, was selected by Harrison Solomon, 23, whilst Ty, also 23, was chosen by Shakira Khan, 22 in the mid-series relationship test earlier this month. In a twist of fate, on Tuesday night both of the fakers were dumped by their partners so boomeranged back to each other.
