Glasgow doctor accused of sex abuse and intimidation faces misconduct hearing

A Glasgow doctor is facing a misconduct hearing over claims he abused former partners.

Radiologist Chris Cadman is accused of physically and sexually abusing one woman for over a year and asking her to meet him, despite being told not to.

The Medical Practitioners' Tribunal Service (MPTS) will hear evidence next month that the couple were in a relationship when the offences are alleged to have occurred between December 2013 and January 2015.

It is further claimed the Glasgow University graduate mentally and physically abused a second woman between April 2015 and January 2016 and intimidated her during a meeting in 2016.

The MPTS is the independent body that scrutinises cases for the General Medical Council, the watchdog responsible for investigating misconduct against doctors in the UK.

Some evidence has already been heard by the tribunal, which is scheduled to reconvene on November 24.

If the allegations against him are proved, Dr Cadman could be struck off or suspended from the medical register.
