She was 'absolutely shocked at what he was saying'
A doctor who was found to have sexually harassed a colleague while at work has been suspended for three months. Dr David Darby was working at the Isebrook Hospital in Wellingborough when he asked the woman if she was menopausal, if she still ovulated and about her vaginal secretions.
The woman told investigators that she was "absolutely shocked at what he was saying", had been "embarrassed" and told him: "You can't really ask those sorts of questions." The Medical Practitioners Tribunal Service panel said Dr Darby had been found to have been responsible for “serious breaches” of good medical practice. It said suspension would have “a deterrent effect and could be used to send out a signal to the doctor about what is regarded as behaviour unbefitting a registered doctor.”
Paul Williams, for the General Medical Council , said on Tuesday that permanently erasing Dr Darby from the medical register would have been disproportionate but that just placing conditions on his employment would have been insufficient.
