The Hospital Authority has dismissed a resident doctor at Tuen Mun Hospital for performing an unauthorized examination on a patient. This disciplinary action follows the earlier termination of a trainee doctor, who was the resident's girlfriend. The trainee doctor had been sacked for accessing patient records without official approval. According to a statement released on Monday, the resident doctor's actions were linked to the unauthorized access. The Hospital Authority emphasized that such breaches of protocol are unacceptable. Both medical professionals have now been removed from their positions. The incident highlights strict enforcement of patient privacy and professional conduct within the healthcare system.
