A former Kitchener, Ont. neurologist charged with sexually assaulting dozens of female patients is on the stand Wednesday.
Jeffrey Sloka faces 50 counts of sexual assault in what is one of the largest investigations of its kind in Ontario.
The alleged incidents happened at his private practice office at the Kaufman Building at Grand River Hospital between January 2010 and July 2017.
Previously during the trial, court heard Sloka allegedly asked some female patients, including teenagers, to take off their clothes for physical and skin exams and touched their breasts and genitalia.
On Wednesday, Sloka’s lawyers asked him to walk them through a typical neurological exam.
Sloka testified he always asked a patient ahead of an exam: “Is it okay if we look at you here today?”
