Dr. Mahumudul Haq , a Kissimee, FL gastroenterologist, was charged with groping a 25 year old woman at his office last April. The doctor, who has been working for 8 years out of that office, was arrested by Kissimmee police early Thursday morning and released later that day.
It was late April when a 25-year-old patient went to see the licensed stomach doctor. She claims, after a nurse left the room, Haq pulled open her shirt and started fondling her breasts, something police say should never have been done to a patient visiting for a gastrointestinal problem.
"He did, in fact, touch her breasts. She was not there for a breast exam," said Stacie Miller, Kissimmee Police Department.
Haq bonded out of the Osceola County jail on the battery charges Thursday afternoon.
Police believe that there are more victims. A single groping charge is a misdemeanor, but multiple groping charges can be charged as felonies. Investigators are urging any current or former patients to call the Kissimee Police Department.
