No criminal charges for Villages m.d. Sexter??
 

Unbelievable. The -news online just published an article about this.
Aren't there laws against sexual-harassment?
Can it be true this guy is still practicing here in TV?

more and more, I feel like a stranger and a pilgrim in the land.

Maybe, not enough evidence???

Article says he sent the victim, a patient age 29, video of him pleasuring himself. He is making a deal with med board for what he has to do to stay in practice.

I try not to rush to judgement.

Saul Goodman would do well in this town. Better Call Saul.

I don't think he'll have much of a practice after this gets published in tomorrow's Sun!

not the only one in this area
hello check your doctors out

Unbelievable is right. And did you catch that the "alleged" behavior took place in August 2011?? 3 years ago and now a slap on the wrist. Sounds like victim has lots of evidence, including videos. Florida is a strange place where justice is concerned. This guy should never practice medicine again.

Of a much less important part of this news, why is he referred to as a "Villages" doctor, when according to his website, he practices at three other locations as well? Seems like some media folks, particularly the online tabloid, are hell bent to attribute any bad thing that comes along to TV. Just my opinion.

I don't think he needs Saul. Sounds like he's pretty much off the hook. What a travesty.

It probably has to do with the FL Criminal Law with how the statutes are written with respect to inappropriate sexual behavior.

I will bet that many of the women who work with this doctor now though will always keep a careful eye on him with female patients.

He does not seem to have gotten off that lightly.

This is a huge community now. So, I am not surprised when various serious breaches of ethics, law, or whatever come up in the news even in that other source.

IMO, he has gotten off VERY, VERY lightly. There has so far been no explanation for the 3-year delay in adjucating this.

Where did you read this and who are you talking about?

Google villages doctor and sexting or something like that. Here's a link to a different source-- http://health.wusf.usf.edu/post/doct...ipline-sexting

I have never had much confidence in boards that police their own members. Doctors seem to protect fellow doctors, like lawyers protect fellow lawyers leaving victims with little recourse.

Interesting article about the medical school he attended.

Seems to be a magnet for students whose grades are too low to get into med schools in the USA.
