A judge has concluded Kimberley Cairns made false allegations that Dr Roshan Ravindran ostracised her and repeatedly breached a requirement to have a chaperone when treating female patients
The doctor behind a £5m Cheshire beauty clinic feared losing his career after a former practice manager made a false allegation against him.
Mrs Cairns took Dr Ravindran to an employment tribunal alleging 'unfair dismissal'. But after hearing evidence, Judge Brian Doyle threw out Mrs Cairns' case. But, over time the pair encountered 'some friction', the tribunal heard, starting in November 2020 when Mrs Cairns made claims for overtime - which were paid - even though such claims were not part of her contract and she had been instructed not to make such claims, the tribunal found.
Mrs Cairns would later claim, in the employment tribunal, that Dr Ravindran had called her a 'hypocrite' during the meeting, and said that she had 'damaged business'. The following month, the GMC referred the doctor to the Medical Practitioners Tribunal Service and an interim order overturned the suspension and instead placed conditions on Dr Ravindran, including that he could not carry out consultations on female patients without a chaperone unless there was a life-threatening emergency.
However, the judge found, when Dr Parkes checked, the chaperone log was 'all in order' - and, in October 2021, a hearing of the Interim Orders Tribunal would decide it was 'not satisfied that Dr Ravindran had committed any breach of the interim conditions relating to consultations with female patients', the tribunal heard. All restrictions on his practice were removed by March 25, 2022.
The judge found that he had not called her a 'hypocrite' but rather had said it was 'hypocritical of her not to place herself on furlough, when she had been asked to do so, and when she had furloughed other members of staff'. Neither had he said she was 'damaged business', but had explained to her that her overtime claims 'were damaging to the business financially'.
The judge found 'obvious untruths', going on to describe Mrs Cairns as 'evasive' when answering questions and said that she provided 'long, rambling answers that sought to take the focus off the question asked'. "The respondent would have been entitled to dismiss the claimant summarily or within a relatively short period of time... For these reasons, the claimant was not constructively dismissed or unfairly dismissed by the respondent."
