Anthony Haycroft represents a GP at the Crown Court at Amersham facing an allegation of inappropriate touching of a patient during a heart and lung examination

15th June 2021


Anthony Haycroft represented a GP at the Crown Court at Amersham facing an allegation of sexual touching of a patient during a heart and lung examination. In addition there had been purported bad character allegations concerning other patients. The Crown accepted the defence argument against bad character and so the case continued in respect of the single incident only. The jury took under two hours to return a unanimous verdict of not guilty and the doctor was discharged.

Anthony Haycroft was instructed by Ian Sadler and Jinal Shah of Radcliffe LeBrasseur, London through Dr Nicholas of Medical Protection Society.
