A doctor has been found guilty of professional misconduct after allegedly playing with a young female patient's nipples before trying to apologise by purchasing her groceries.
NSW Civil and Administrative Tribunal heard on Wednesday that a woman, referred to as Patient A, visited Moruya Medical Centre in January 2020, after injuring her knee.
The woman, who was 31 at the time, was treated by Dr Sharwan Narayan, now 45, who she described as a 'nice, knowledgeable doctor'.
But over the course of her next few appointments, the tribunal noted the doctor's conduct became inappropriate.
During one visit, the date of which was unclear, Patient A told the tribunal she was 'a bit shocked' when Dr Narayan allegedly asked her to hug him.
