Manish Shah (doctor)

Manish Shah (born 1969 or 1970) is a former general practitioner in east London.[1] On 7 February 2020, he was handed three life sentences with a minimum term of 15 years, plus further jail terms to run concurrently, at the Old Bailey, having been convicted of 90 sexual assaults on 24 female patients.[1] He misused his position to trick them into being unnecessarily intimately examined by him.[1]

On Monday 9th January 2023 he received two more life sentences, after sexually assaulting 4 women during unnecessary examinations.[2] He was found guilty last month of 25 sexual assaults at his GP clinic in Romford, east London on the 4 women.[2]

At the Old Bailey on Monday the further two life sentences totalling 10 years were given, to run concurrently with earlier sentences.[2]

He is now convicted of 115 offences of sexual assault and assault by penetration, against 28 women aged between 15 and 34 and will serve a minimum of 25 years.[2]
