Surgeon fired after ogling sedated patients genitals of the day, taking money from medical company [Video]

LOS ANGELES (KTLA) — A Harbor-UCLA Medical Center surgeon who was accused of a variety of acts of misbehavior, including some that were sexist and racist, has been fired by the hospital, according to reports.

Dr. Louis Kwong, who was the subject of a lawsuit against the county filed last year, was terminated after a “two-year investigation that found he regularly gawked at the genitalia of anesthetized patients and never disclosed that he was being paid by a medical[l device company whose products he used on patients,” the Los Angeles Times reports.

Kwong’s colleagues told investigators that he “looked under the surgical covers of Black males who were under anesthesia and discussed the ‘genitals of the day’” and also “discussed his favorite sex positions and his preference for ‘auto-erotic asphyxiation,’” the Times reports.

Kwong also took over $700,000 from a company that makes joint replacements and never reported that conflict of interest to the county, investigators found.
