Psychiatrist suspended for 10-year sexual relationship with patient

[BuiKia]

SINGAPORE - A psychiatrist practising at the Mount Elizabeth Medical Centre was suspended and fined for having an improper sexual relationship with his patient for over 10 years.

Dr Kong Sim Guan, also known as Sim Heng Guan, practised at The Psychiatric & Behavioural Medicine Clinic (Ang & Kong) at Mount Elizabeth Medical Centre, and was found to be in a relationship with his client from 1996 to 2009.

He was suspended for three years and fined $10,000 by the Singapore Medical Council (SMC) in the rare disciplinary case, reported The Straits Times.

Under SMC's medical code and ethical guidelines, a doctor must not have a sexual relationship with a patient, or be involved in an adulterous relationship.

The patient was described by the committee as a "vulnerable" and troubled psychiatric patient experiencing marital issues.

"We are cognizant of the fact that the medical issues faced by the Patient were related to her mental well-being and as her psychiatrist, (Kong) should have been more than aware that his sexual relationship with her can only be interpreted as taking advantage of her troubled state and vulnerability, let alone exacerbating and complicating her marital problems," the committee noted.

The sex is part of the therapy.

Everyone needs a little sexual healing.

Prostitutes are not about relationship, but transaction. No kam cheng involved.

If you use strict, literal Christian way of seeing adultery, even looking at a woman and thinking of having sex with her is considered adultery.

This case may not even be one of those obtained through power and positions.
Could also be that after so many years of sharing and opening up to each other (both literally and figuratively), they actually thought they were in love.

Doctors not supposed to have relationship with patients, because it may impact on their professionalism.
May be seen to be taking advantage of their vulnerability or confidentiality or priviledged position.
A single doctor can have relationships with any single person who is not his patient.

A single doctor can have relationships with any single person who is not his patient.
