Clarence Teo Shun Jie, 36, is serving three-and-a-half years and two weeks in jail. He was sentenced in a district court in June last year to four strokes of the cane and a fine of S$4,000.
The former locum — or stand-in doctor — at clinics was struck off the medical register in January this year, with the Singapore Medical Council (SMC) releasing its written grounds of decision last Thursday (March 4).
Teo had bashed Ms Rachel Lim En Hui, now 30, at least thrice — once, when she refused him sex.
They had met on the dating mobile application Coffee Meets Bagel in February 2017 and dated from then until August that year.
Following his conviction in court, the SMC brought four disciplinary charges against him — three in relation to each incident of assault, and one in relation to Teo wrongfully restraining Ms Lim during the last incident.
Teo pleaded guilty to all the charges before a disciplinary tribunal. His case was referred to the tribunal by the SMC.
