A family doctor who tried to woo a patient with flowers and cheesy
chat-up lines after bragging about being a ‘good-looking guy’ has been
banned from practising in the UK for one year.
The 40-year-old Nigerian doctor, Chris Uzoh, reportedly spent six weeks pestering the woman to try and get a date and told her that he had ‘huge earning potential’.
He also claimed to be ‘the best in his medical school’ as well as having written ‘several well cited scientific publications.’
Uzoh also sent her 20 text messages after getting her address and phone number from medical records.
Within 30 minutes of the appointment finishing, he texted her saying: “Sorry for this text message, but I saw you and liked you and thought we could go on a date on the future.
“I am single and looking for a serious relationship and not intending to mess about.”
He also left the patient a voice mail saying he wanted to “hear her voice before he went to work.”
Uzoh later sent her another text, saying: “I’ve been feeling like a schoolboy meeting a girl he fancied for the first time. I haven’t felt this way in a while.”
Later, the woman received a card and flowers at her home, along with a further message from Uzoh adding: “I wonder how else I would have met you if not this way.
“My heart is pure, I care, I hope it would be possible to make you mine some day.”
The unnamed patient, who lived alone, urged Uzoh to stop pestering her but he pressed on with his chat-up lines saying: “I was trying to be romantic — I did not mean to be creepy. I was excited about you.”
Another text said: “How is it possible that a good looking guy who is a doctor, who has a job with huge earning potential, who was the best graduating doctor in his medical school, who started out as a urological surgeon with several well-cited scientific publications, who thinks you beautiful and special, who wants you — and you wouldn’t give him a chance? I’ve been in a Toronto and I couldn’t stop thinking about you.”
The patient eventually complained to Uzoh’s colleagues at the Murdishaw Health Centre in Runcorn and he was reported to the General Medical Council.
Uzoh, a father of two, has since quit the UK and is now working in Toronto, Canada.
At the Medical Practitioners Tribunal Service in Manchester, Uzoh was suspended from practice in Britain for 12 months after he was found guilty of misconduct.
The incidents began between March and May last year when the woman was booked in for an appointment with Uzoh, after complaining of abdominal pain.
