Woman claims she was kissed and molested by hospital consultant

A mother of three told a Medical Council hearing yesterday how she was absolutely terrified after she was allegedly kissed and molested by a hospital consultant.

Teri Chamberlain, who was living in Cahir, Co Tipperary, at the time, claimed an anaesthetist kissed her, locked her into his residence and molested her.

Dr Hossam Desoky, from Egypt, who was working as a consultant anaesthetist at South Tipperary General Hospital on July 13, 2010, is facing 10 allegations of professional misconduct, or poor professional performance at a Medical Council fitness to practice inquiry.
