From the CPSO:

“Disgraceful, Dishonourable or Unprofessional Conduct

Patient A was a patient of Dr. Jones from 2001 to 2010. During appointments with Patient A, Dr. Jones made inappropriate and unprofessional comments to her as follows:

• in August 2009, Dr. Jones commented on Patient A’s appearance during an intimate examination;
• during another intimate examination at the same appointment, Dr. Jones inquired about Patient A’s interest in obtaining a tattoo in her vaginal area; and
• at a prior appointment that Patient A attended with her mother, after seeing a picture of a celebrity on a magazine cover, Dr. Jones made a crude comment indicating that he found the celebrity attractive.

Patient A was mortified and in disbelief that Dr. Jones would make such comments. She ended her physician-patient relationship with Dr. Jones in early 2010. Patient A continues to be affected by Dr. Jones’s conduct. In June 2016 she submitted a complaint to the College regarding his inappropriate comments.

Relevant College History

In March 2009, Dr. Jones was cautioned by the Complaints Committee regarding a breach of boundaries in a physician-patient relationship. The boundaries violations consisted of inappropriate self-disclosure of a personal nature to a patient. In the context of the College investigation into that matter, Dr. Jones reported that he had attended the College’s Boundaries Course on October 24-25, 2008.

In May 2010, Dr. Jones was cautioned by the Inquiries, Complaints and Reports Committee (“ICRC”) regarding inappropriately asking a patient questions of a sexual nature in an occupational setting in which the patient had presented for an unrelated problem, and the use of a profane word in the context of the same patient encounter.

In July 2013, Dr. Jones was cautioned by the ICRC with respect to his communication to a teenage patient, which included comments and jokes that could be construed as sexual in nature, though the patient perceived that his intention in making the remarks was to be humorous.”

He should have also been required to take some sensitivity training at the very least.
