MONTREAL — A Montreal doctor has been suspended and fined for filming female patients with a hidden camera while they were naked.
Quebec's College of Physicians says it has suspended Dr. Barry Rabinovitch for four months and fined him $3,000.
According to the disciplinary report released Tuesday, the investigation found that Rabinovitch filmed 10 to 15 women in various stages of undress in an examining room between January and May 2009.
The 56-year-old is a married father of two children and a lung specialist.
He is also an associate professor with McGill University's medical faculty.
The professional order calls the actions "hateful and degrading" and says the penalty must send a deterrent message to all members of the profession.
