An 'obsessed' woman who claimed her gynaecologist gave her two 'leg
buckling' orgasms during an examination dropped her case for sexual
harassment today - and agreed to pay her former doctor �30,000.
Bibi Giles, 50, accused Angus Thomson of intentionally pleasuring her during
a 90 second examination in 2006.
She filed a �50,000 claim for sexual harassment and assault at Worcester
County Court but the case was adjourned yesterday after new evidence came to
light.
Mrs Giles and her husband Peter, a wealthy quantity surveyor, have now
dropped their claim and agreed to pay Mr Thomson �30,000 in costs.
Married father-of-three Mr Thomson raged earlier in proceedings that the
allegations were a 'road to Damascus thing', adding that every time a male
doctor sees a female patient they could 'say this sort of thing'.
Speaking outside court with his wife, Lucy, also a GP, Mr Thomson broke down
in tears as he spoke of his 'enormous relief'.
He said: 'The last three years have been a horrible experience. This week in
court has been unspeakably stressful for my wife and our extended family and
for me.
'I have always tried to conduct myself in an entirely professional manner.
'The allegations that Mrs Giles made, which are completely untrue, are some
of the most serious that a doctor can be accused of.
'They threatened to ruin my career and reputation and therefore I'm
enormously relieved and delighted that this case has been concluded with my
full exoneration of these false allegations and that I'm now able to return
to work on Monday with my professional reputation in tact.
'Having made these horrible false allegations, Mr and Mrs Giles walk away
from court today. I can only hope that she's never in a position to put any
other person through what she has put me and my family through over the last
three years.'
Mr Thomson started treating Mrs Giles for a prolapse and later, fibroids, at
the Droitwich Spa Hospital in 2006 but she quickly became infatuated with
him.
It was claimed that she asked Mr Thomson to 'give it to her' because she no
longer had sex with her husband after he had been unfaithful.
The hearing had previously heard suggestions that Mrs Giles, from Droitwich
Spa, Worcestershire, told Mr Thomson she had once been a Miss Guyana,
although it is something she has denied.
The court also heard it had also been claimed her husband Peter, a quantity
surveyor, was a diplomat in Russia and that she had been involved in
treating Michael Jackson and Oprah Winfrey in her work as a cosmetologist.
It emerged that Mrs Giles was friendly with presidents of Guyana, Members of
Parliament in the South American state and that she had met royalty, namely
Princess Anne, at a function.
Mrs Giles had claimed in court that, during an examination following her
operation, Mr Thomson had 'rhythmically' stroked her vagina, giving her two
'leg-buckling' involuntary orgasms in 90 seconds with a nurse chaperone
standing just feet away.
She alleged that, shortly before the procedure, he had also kissed her.
But despite her alleged distress following the 'abuse', Mrs Giles decided to
remain in Mr Thomson's care, rather than finding herself another
gynaecologist.
Earlier in proceedings Mr Thomson told the court: 'Despite following every
best practice procedure I'm standing here defending myself because an
individual has decided to say these things about me.
'This is a road to Damascus thing. Every time a doctor sees a woman she
could turn around and say this sort of thing.'
It was claimed that in the months following the alleged assault, Mrs Giles
bombarded Mr Thomson with text messages, including a sexually-suggestive one
describing her need for his 'Angus beef sausage'.
The calls became an embarrassment for the consultant, who would joke about
'Miss Guyana' with colleagues at tennis games.
But Mr Giles continued answering her 'bizarre' calls because they were
medical in nature and he believed that he was continuing his duty of care.
Mr Thomson eventually wrote to the Medical Defence Union to complain about
Mrs Giles and their contact stopped when she announced plans to sue.
Judge Daniel Pearce-Higgins QC announced today that Mrs Giles had agreed to
drop the case and pay �30,000 in costs.
He said: 'I would like to compliment Mrs Giles on her very sensible decision
to bring an end to proceedings in light of the adjournment yesterday.
'This fully exonerates Mr Thomson and leaves his professional reputation
intact.
'He has no doubt learned that there are limits to compassion and
professional concern that he can volunteer to his patients.'
WHAT! You mean she hit the bull's eye twice in ninety seconds!
