A doctor, Yeo Teng Yao, is accused of molesting a woman at Khoo Teck Puat Hospital in July 2023.
MOH Holdings told The Straits Times on Sept 8 that he is no longer working for the company.
Yeo's pre-trial conference will take place on Sept 29.
SINGAPORE - A doctor is facing a molestation charge over claims that he outraged a woman’s modesty at Khoo Teck Puat Hospital (KTPH) in Yishun in 2023.
The Straits Times learnt that Yeo Teng Yao was charged on Sept 3.
The 29-year-old was previously employed by MOH Holdings (MOHH), which is the holding company of Singapore’s public healthcare institutions.
Responding to queries from ST on Sept 8, MOHH said that Yeo has been let go.
“We expect our medical officers to uphold high standards of professional conduct. The doctor was immediately suspended from all duties when the matter was brought to our attention and has since been dismissed,” a spokesman said.
According to court documents, Yeo was in a ward at KTPH at around 9pm on July 17, 2023 when he allegedly placed the diaphragm of a stethoscope onto the breasts of a 24-year-old woman.
The diaphragm is the flat side of the chestpiece which is used to listen to sounds like the heart.
The documents did not disclose if the woman was a patient at KTPH.
The Singapore Medical Council’s database shows that Yeo is still a registered doctor.
His pre-trial conference will be held on Sept 29.
An offender convicted of molestation can be jailed for up to three years, fined, caned, or receive any combination of such punishments.
