I don't think it's fair to blame a doctor for that situation. Actively conning a doctor by mimicking legitimate medical conditions, which results in those medical conditions being treated with the appropriate medications, is not his fault. It is your fault.
That line of thought basically says that the way things are, where doctor's refuse to believe any patient (particularly younger patients teenagers - 30s) when they complain of pain, muscle tension, insomnia, anxiety/panic, inability to concentrate, etc. It is the doctor's responsibility to evaluate symptoms, patient history, patient complaints, and diagnose accordingly. Otherwise we end up with the situation found across the US where chronic pain patients can't get the right medications based on the doctor's fear (debilitating fear) of being 'conned', or investigated by the DEA, etc. and the culture of 'drug seekers are everywhere; gotta stop prescribing any addictive or recreational substances' etc.
So you're saying it's the doctor's fault that he treated you with sleeping medication and anxiolytics after you faked anxiety and insomnia convincingly? Why not take responsibility for what you did and realize he isthe victim, not you. No reason to pull his license.
I had a doctor who is now behind bars for selling scripts (I didn't know this when I saw him for legitimate medical issues). He was using his Buprenorphine training and licensing to attract opioid addicts to his office, then offer to write Oxycodone/Hydromorphone scripts for lots of cash. This is an example of an unscrupulous, criminal doctor who preys on addicts rather than trying to treat them.
