A trainee surgeon has been struck off the medical register after he was found to have transformed a hospital ward into his own secret porn studio, a hearing has heard.
Suheil Ahmed, 28, took more than 100 photographs of women while carrying out intimate examinations of women at Torbay Hospital in Devon.
He sectioned off their beds from the rest of the ward, before touching his victims as he removed their clothing to allow himself a better view.
During the intimate examinations Ahmed told his victims, who were all in their 20s, that he was using a mobile phone to time their breathing or heart rate.
He also installed a secret camera in a house owned by his family to film students using the toilet.
Ahmed was suspended by Torbay Hospital after two women complained about their examinations, sparking a probe into his conduct.
A police investigation found 110 images of patients uploaded to his home personal computer along with footage from a secret camera installed in a property belonging to his family.
He initially denied any wrongdoing, claiming he had taken the pictures for his medical portfolio.
But Ahmed, who lived in Cardiff, admitted 11 counts of voyeurism and two counts of sexual assault by touching when he appeared at Exeter Crown Court.
He was jailed for 18 months last October later increased to 30 months after the Court of Appeal found the sentence was ‘unduly lenient’.
