An Ottawa psychiatrist promised Monday to never return to his profession in the wake of allegations of bizarre sexual abuse that included the assault of a male patient with a toilet brush.
Dr. Juan Ernesto Tejeda Rosario, who also faces criminal charges, submitted a written resignation to the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario at the start of his disciplinary hearing in Toronto. Tejeda, who did not appear in person before the disciplinary panel, signed an undertaking in which he agreed not to "apply or reapply for registration as a physician or for a licence to practice medicine in Ontario or in any other jurisdiction."
In exchange, the college agreed not to proceed with its disciplinary review on allegations that Tejeda engaged in sexual impropriety with a patient, sexual abuse of a patient and behaviour that "would reasonably be regarded by members as disgraceful, dishonourable or unprofessional."
Allegations contained in a notice of hearing filed by the college in December say that Tejeda engaged in sexual acts with a patient both inside and outside the clinical setting between 1989 and 2005.
It states he had oral and anal sex with one patient, had the man masturbate in his presence and instructed the patient to masturbate him.
The notice also alleges Tejeda paid his patient's girlfriend $3,000 to keep quiet about the relationship.
