Accused psychiatrist's fondling of patient wasn't medical: urologist

October 15, 2012 - 1:23 PM

CALGARY - A Toronto urologist says he doesn't believe that a Calgary forensic psychiatrist charged with sexually assaulting his patients was performing a medical procedure.

Dr. Aubrey Levin was charged after one of his patients came forward and provided police with secret videos he recorded during his court-ordered sessions.

The videos, shown in court last week, show Levin undoing the man’s belt and jeans and fondling him.

Urologist Dr. Ethan Grober says the test Levin says he was doing would have been completed very quickly.

Grober says the video appears to show prolonged fondling of the man.

After Levin was arrested, nearly two dozen other former patients came forward with abuse allegations.
