Psychiatrist at PJ Hospital Sexually Harasses His Rape Victim Patient
What kind of world do we live in where psychiatrists, respected figures who are expected to protect our privacy and guide us back into a rejuvenated mental state, are the perpetrators of sexual harassment that gradually exacerbates the well-being of their patients?
Recently, according to a report in World of Buzz, a psychiatrist practicing at a hospital in Petaling Jaya has been suspended and eventually terminated for sexually harassing his patient. This matter is already severely abysmal and telling of the power-trip authoritative figures have over their patients but to worsen the condition, the patient is a recovering rape victim.
At first, the conversations were professional and strictly revolved around booking appointments. However, as time passed, the psychiatrist identified as Dr. Gurdeep began to brazenly send sexual innuendos and even had the audacity to call his patient while he was masturbating.

Other than the blatant lack of respect for his patient’s mental health, which is ironic considering he’s a bloody psychiatrist, Dr. Gurdeep made several efforts to coax her into having sex with him by buying sex toys in hopes that she would agree to his disgusting proposition. He even offered her drugs, specifically ecstasy, and was denied on every attempt.
As a result, the patient’s condition is even worse than when she started her treatment with said doctor. Suffering from multiple debilitating anxiety attacks that keep her awake at night, she copes by self-harming. Despite her obviously deteriorating condition, Dr. Gurdeep offers no medical assistance. Instead, he exacerbates the situation by continuing his harassment and ‘checking up on her’ everyday.
On a more positive note, a report has been made to the hospital where the perpetrator practices at and the issue is under close investigation. World of Buzz contacted the hospital and this is the statement they were given,
“Please be informed that the Hospital had received a complaint on this incident and had taken immediate action to suspend the Consultant on the 6th of July 2019 and followed by termination from practicing at the Hospital effective 15th July 2019.”
It is baffling how brazen sexual predators are nowadays in committing their crimes out in the open, especially within the workplace. It just proves that predators can come from any background, regardless of social status. When faced with these kinds of predicaments, always remember to keep the evidence and report it as soon as you can.
