"The patient said Dr. Mohammed Habeeb Ahmed asked her about her sexual activity, complimented her breasts, and then squeezed them when she stood up to leave during an examination at a medical office in Gilroy in 2021, according to the medical board's investigation. The medical board revoked Ahmed's license to practice medicine for two months earlier this year and ordered him to have a chaperone monitor his appointments with female patients."
"The board's investigation of Ahmed found "clear and convincing evidence to a reasonable certainty" of sexual misconduct. It also found that the doctor had acted dishonestly and negligently. Ahmed did not respond to calls and emails seeking comment. During the medical board's investigation, he denied any sexual misconduct. His attorney, Nick Jurkowitz, told Bay Area News Group that Ahmed continues to deny the patient's allegations. In March, Ahmed filed an appeal of the medical board'"
Cardiologist Mohammed Habeeb Ahmed was found to have inappropriately touched a female patient during a 2021 examination in Gilroy, including asking about sexual activity, complimenting and squeezing her breasts. The Medical Board of California revoked his license for two months, placed him on probation until 2032, ordered chaperones for female patient appointments, mandated ethics and professional boundaries courses, and required payment of $30,000 related to its investigation. The board determined there was clear and convincing evidence of sexual misconduct and found dishonesty and negligence. Ahmed denies the allegations and filed an appeal.
