Surgeon Pays $21.5M for Secret Cameras

A Toronto plastic surgeon faces a $21.5 million judgment after secretly installing 24 hidden cameras in his clinic—including exam rooms and operating theaters—breaching patient privacy and sparking a class-action lawsuit. The court rejected his “general security” defense, calling his testimony unreliable, and upheld findings from an undercover investigation that led to the cameras being disabled and recordings seized. While the main legal battle is settled, patients can still pursue claims for mental distress and humiliation. This case sends a stark warning: patient trust and privacy are non-negotiable in healthcare—and violations carry massive legal and financial consequences.
