GP wins £750,000 payout after suffering PTSD from years of sexist bullying and bizarre threats from boss
Dr Affia Okoreaffia told Dr Agnes Olayemi he wanted to eat her before cutting her wages and sacking her
A GP won a £750,000 payout after her boss said he wanted to eat her ears.
Dr Agnes Olayemi, 55, was subjected to bullying and harassment by practice owner Dr Affia Okoreaffia, a tribunal heard.
Dr Olayemi was led to believe she was a partner at the practice
He told her “he wanted to eat my ears most because he likes cartilage”, she said.
Dr Okoreaffia, 59, also opened Dr Olayemi’s mail, told her there were people who would ‘beat her up’, that by the time he was finished with her she would need a psychiatrist and that she would leave with her ‘tail between her legs’.
She started as a locum and he promised to make her a partner and paid her accordingly.
But he never actually registered her as such, leaving her believing she was in fact a partner at the Athena practice in Hackney east London.
As their relationship deteriorated he deducted wages, transferred 624 of her patients to himself and downgraded her status on the IT system from that of a partner to a locum.
