Doctor ‘slept with multiple women in GP consulting room during work hours’
Bombshell allegations.
Cambridge-educated doctor, 40, ‘had sex with multiple women in his GP surgery’s consulting rooms during working hours and lied about his mother being ill so he could juggle his girlfriends’, tribunal is told
Thomas Plimmer, 40, has been hit with a barrage of allegations from at least half a dozen women, including a ‘vulnerable’ colleague who claims he forced her into weekly sex sessions at his GP practice in Swindon, Wiltshire.
The doctor went on to invite two women he met on dating sites to the surgery where he engaged in sex acts with them during working hours, the Medical Practitioners Tribunal heard.
On a separate occasion, he is accused of sending unsolicited pictures of genitals that were ‘taken at work’ to another women he met on a dating site.
It was also alleged in the tribunal that Plimmer threatened another woman, saying that he knew ‘where she lives’ and if the ‘c*** takes me to the GMC, I’ll slit her throat’.
Plimmer’s relationship with his colleague began with an ‘innuendo about a chocolate rabbit’, the tribunal, held by video conference, heard.
In May 2018, the Cambridge-educated medic showed her a video of him having sex with another women ‘without warning’, said Mark Monaghan, who was presenting the case on behalf of the General Medical Council.
He then allegedly tried to ‘kiss’ and ‘touch’ her, with Mr Monaghan claiming Plimmer would ‘come into her room with his trousers undone and flirt with her’ despite her refusing his advances, The Sun reported.
Mr Monaghan argued that Plimmer knew the colleague was ‘vulnerable’ and exhibited an ‘abuse of his position’.
It was further claimed that the woman walked in on Plimmer performing sex acts in his consulting room on multiple occasions. The tribunal also heard that he would frequently send her explicit videos, which he admits.
In another instance, when the woman was ‘clearly distressed’, Plimmer put his ‘arm around her’ and led her into his consulting room to ‘cheer her up’. He then placed his hands on her genitals, the tribunal was told.
There was sexual behaviour with the colleague on a ‘weekly basis’ but Plimmer insists it was ‘always consensual’. The woman allegedly was fearful to report the situation and worried she would be blamed.
Plimmer met another woman on a dating app on New Year’s Eve 2019 and brought her to the consulting room at his practice of January 3. The tribunal heard that he made a mug of tea, locked the door and she performed a sex act on him.
Mr Monaghan argued that she was ‘uncomfortable’ because she could ‘hear people walk past’.
The tribunal was also told that he met another woman online, identified as Miss C, in May 2018. The pair went to the tennis at Wimbledon and he even met her parents.
