Mohammed Ihsan, 35, allegedly put his crotch in the face of the unnamed woman and kissed her on the lips
A family GP unzipped his trousers and offered to have sex with a female patient when she asked him about the contraceptive pill, a medical tribunal has heard.
Newly married Mohammed Ihsan, 35, allegedly put his crotch in the face of the unnamed woman and kissed her on the lips, telling her: ‘Having lots of sex makes you healthy.’
The patient claims she felt ‘glued to her chair’ as Ihsan smiled and told her: ‘I am horny me’ and that he wanted her to ‘see his b***s’ – something the GP has admitted.
Ihsan then tried to hold his patient’s hand, stroked her cheek and asked to see the patient’s bum, the Medical Practitioners Tribunal Service was told.
The woman known as Patient B, who was being treated at the Dr Singh and Partners Health Centre in Pontefract, West Yorkshire in July 2016, fled the room and reported him days later. Ihsan, from Huddersfield, had been working as a locum at the surgery since 2015.
Ihsan’s wife sent Patient B a Facebook message after the incident, saying what she had heard had ‘absolutely killed’ and ‘shocked’ her, the Manchester hearing was told.
Speaking about Patient B, Alan Taylor, lawyer for the General Medical Council, told the hearing: ‘She had been to see the doctor previously because she was feeling down and depressed and he asked her about her previous relationship and she remembers crying throughout the consultation and thought his questioning was strange.
‘On the July 7 she had booked an appointment for a pill review and when she arrived for the appointment they both recognised each other. He took her blood pressure and measured her weight and asked her how things were in her life since she last saw him.
‘She said things were really good and that she felt better with herself and the doctor said to her: “I can tell you are in a good place, you look good.”
‘He asked her why she wanted to be on The Pill if she wasn’t having sex and she told him she wanted it to regulate her periods.
‘But following that, he moved his chair towards her and said: “I am horny me.” He had a smile on his face and was leaning forwards and she made herself clear that she was not. He said he could clear his desk and they could have sex on it there and then.’
As Patient B attempted to reject Mr Ihsan’s advances by telling him he had other people outside the office waiting, he said he could ‘lock the door if you want me to’ and said that ‘lots of sex makes you healthy’, Mr Taylor told the Manchester hearing.
Mr Ihsan said he had broken up with his wife before moving in closer to Patient B, trying to hold her hands and then briefly kissing her on the lips.
Mr Taylor added: ‘Following that, doctor Ihsan said to Patient B: “I want to show you something. I want you to see my b***s.” He repeated this and kept saying: “I really, really want you to see my b***s,” and he stood up, unzipped his trousers and put his crotch near her face.
‘She jumped up to leave and leaned over to get the prescription on the side but her purse was open displaying a picture of her daughter. Dr Ihsan saw the photograph and commented saying: “She is beautiful, just like her mum.” He said that if she wanted to meet him they could meet in a bar and he asked her for her number.
‘He asked her where she lived, but she did not give an address just that it was “up the hill” and he told her he would come to see her some time. On her way out the doctor asked if he could see her bottom to which she replied “no” and at that point left the room.’
The alleged incident took place at Dr Singh and Partners Health Centre in Pontefract, West Yorkshire
Mr Taylor said Patient B ‘could not forgive herself’ if a similar incident happened to another patient and that she broke down in tears as she gave her account of the story to the practice manager.
In another allegation, Ihsan is accused of making inappropriate remarks about another patient’s sex life when the woman known as Patient A asked for antibiotics for a chest infection.
Mr Taylor said: ‘She explained she was getting out of breath quickly and the doctor asked about her family and whether she suffered from anything such as anxiety or stress.
‘Then he proceeded to ask her questions about her sex life and whether she was having regular sex, to which she replied that she was menopausal and didn’t have much sex but that her husband didn’t mind this.’
Patient A believed the questions were about exerting energy at first, but his questions became more explicit in nature, asking if she had orgasms or what she would do to sexually please her husband.
Mr Taylor added: ‘She felt uncomfortable and tried to steer the conversation back around to her symptoms. She does not know why she answered his questions but she says that because he was a doctor, she trusted him but that no other doctor has asked her things like that before.
‘He asked her to come back in two weeks time which she thought was unusual and she decided not to make another appointment but to report the matter to the health centre.
‘Patient A’s sexual life had no relevance to the chest problems which she had presented and his questions could not have been anything other than sexually motivated.’
Ishan admitted that he asked Patient A if she was sexually active, whether or not she had orgasms, whether she satifisied her husband sexually. The GP denies asking what she would do if her husband was feeling sexual or how she would pleasure him.
Ihsan admits 11 misconduct charges but denies 21 others. The hearing continues.
