Peeping Tom consultant admits spying on more than 1,000 patients in hospital toilets using sophisticated system of hidden cameras
- Dr Lam Hoe Yeoh secretly filmed hundreds of patients as they used hospital toilets between 2011 to April 15, 2014.
World-renowned hearing specialist Dr Lam Hoe Yeoh has today pleaded guilty at Croydon Crown Court to seven counts of voyeurism, six counts of making an indecent photograph of a child, and one of possessing extreme pornography involving animals.
Yeoh, 62, secretly filmed hundreds of patients as they used hospital toilets between January 1, 2011 to April 15, 2014.
The voyeurism charges relate to 30 identified victims and 1,084 unidentified victims, while the charge of making indecent images of children relates to six children.
The physician, who specialises in hearing and balance disorders, was arrested at the private St Anthony's Hospital in North Cheam after an investigation was launched by officers in April when one victim raised the alarm.
The consultant surgeon, from Barnstead, has been based at the NHS St Helier Hospital in Carshalton, Surrey, where he ran a regular clinic.
In addition to St Anthony's, he has worked at two other private hospitals, the Cromwell in Chelsea and the Portland in Central London.
'The charge against his wife is of a wholly different order. The prosecution will not proceed further with this case.'
Her barrister Julia Flannagan said: 'She leaves court without a stain on her character.'
