Before anyone of you squares starts attacking this man consider the possibility of this happening to you. Some lusty wench throws her gash at you one day and maybe you too would risk your career as an arby's store manager and marriage to the slow girl that hands out pens at the mall

>The conversation became more graphic and at 11.16pm, Dr Onyekpe sent her a message asking if he could perform oral sex on her before she left the hospital. Dr Onyekpe then had sex with the patient in the hospital toilets.

Tbf if I was sat bored in the A&E waiting room and a fit doctor asked me if he could eat me out, I'd jump at the chance.

The article says that the police have decided not to press charges but say nothing about the accusations other than rape. It seems strange they'd make an article out of the situation and not say anything about such serious allegations other than that the Dr. said everything was consensual, and the police have decided not to pursue it.

I wonder where he bought his medical degree.

In Texas there were a lot of nurses who were found to have fraudulently acquired nursing diplomas, and all of them were from Nigeria. I'm betting this is a similar story.

That’s why sexual relations between doctors and patients are mostly treated as an ethical issue (re medical license) and civil issue. Unlike statutory rape laws in most states based on the victim’s inability to legally consent to sexual activity based on age or intellectual disability, the “power dynamic” between a doctor and patient or employer and employee does not negate consent in the context of criminal offenses. There are some exceptions as laws vary from state to state, but the majority of states don’t criminally penalize doctor and patient consensual relationships.

whether or not im ok with this is entirely dependent on whether the doctor walks with a cane and is a complete dickhead to all his colleagues but is also the best doctor alive.

I mean there is a little gray area, but in general the farther away you get from the doctor-patient relationship and the hospital toilets the less problematic the relationship in the eyes of the medical board.

For all those who didn't bother to read. Doctor is married. The patient slipped him her number after a previous visit. They sexted over whatsapp. When she went to the hospital for chest pain, she was seen by a different doctor, but she messaged him that she was there, and he took his shot. Toilet sex. Followed by sex at her home in following days. The article doesn't explain how the investigation started, just that he was under suspicion of having raped her, and the criminal charges were dropped after police reviewed the evidence. Dude said his wife is cool with it, but then he had to face the music of damage to his career for the moral hazard of having relations with a patient.

LOL. I wonder if that antiwork sub is still around. I'll go check. I used to love going there and teasing them in ways such as this. I'd say things like "oh look, an arbys cashier is trying to overthrow the global economic system because they think it's unfair they don't have a ferrari."

Its considered unethical for a doctor to have romantic relations with a concurrent patient. In general people expect their doctor to keep things professional. So it's a bad look for him and the hospital.

I actually have less issue with the consensual act in the bathroom than I do with the doctor having an inappropriate conversation with a patient as it would make someone who wasn't interested very uncomfortable.

I remember my buddies and I found a porno dvd in like high school maybe. It opened with a lady complaining how she didn’t feel good. So the dude was like “ma’am, I’m a doctor. My prognosis? You need ta be fucked”.

Apparently just another case of life imitating art.

I know doctors that have paid for abortions because they knocked up patients. One paid off a patient when she had the baby. Yes, most were OB/GYN. It’s so common that when my wife went for a check up, there’s a female nurse always in the room if the doctor is male. If the doctor is a woman, no extra nurse.

I don't know about that. I knew a guy in college that was pre-med with the goal of being an OB/GYN. His mom had died of ovrarian cancer when he was young. Sure some are creeps but some have really good, personal reasons.

I disagree. A person who is interested in a career in medicine who is drawn to the study of and health of the female reproduction system should follow that path if they wish. Male/female should not matter.

So the concern is this: A patient may become dependent upon a doctor for his/her medical expertise and care, and this creates a power imbalance between the two. If the doctor then starts looking for sex, they may feel obligated to comply in order to keep being looked after for whatever medical issues they have. This is why it is unethical, unprofessional, and not permitted by medical regulatory bodies.

There are still always grey areas, and certainly if a doctor and patient agreed to terminate the medical relationship, and a certain period of time passed, then it would be okay in some circumstances.
