Doctor charged with sexually assaulting patient at Amherst ER
A former Nova Scotia physician who now practises in New Brunswick has been charged with sexual assault after allegedly assaulting a patient during an emergency room assessment in Amherst in January. In a release Thursday, Nova Scotia RCMP said Dr. Sanjeev Sirpal has been charged with sexual assault in relation to the alleged incident at the Cumberland Regional Health Care Centre. The release said RCMP believe there may be more victims and are encouraging any survivors to come forward to police. Police say Sirpal was arrested on Aug. 14 and has since been released on conditions ahead of his first appearance in Amherst provincial court on Nov. 15. Sirpal has been previously employed in Quebec and is now in New Brunswick, the RCMP said. According to the registry for the College of Physicians and Surgeons of New Brunswick, Sirpal has been registered to practise in the province since March 14. He specializes in family medicine. His registration comes with two conditions: He can only conduct "intimate examinations" of a patient's sexual organs or breasts, regardless of gender, with a chaperon present. He must explain to the patient, with the chaperon present, why he is conducting the examination and include documentation of what was discussed and the identity of the chaperon in his chart. According to the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Nova Scotia, Sirpan was removed from its registry in March at his request. He is no longer licensed to practise medicine in Nova Scotia.
