A respected Arkansas physician has lost his medical license for five years after security cameras at his own clinic captured him in acts so disturbing that they’ve left the medical community reeling.
Dr. David Diffine’s career came crashing down when footage emerged showing him walking completely naked through his medical practice during business hours, with only a baseball cap covering his head.
But that wasn’t the worst of it. The videos also captured him engaging in sexual acts right there in the clinic, with female staff members present and patients potentially nearby.
The Arkansas State Medical Board didn’t take this decision lightly.
They spent months investigating, interviewing staff members and colleagues who had witnessed what one whistleblower described as a pattern of deeply inappropriate behavior.
The stories that emerged painted a picture of a doctor who had completely abandoned his professional duties and ethical obligations.
According to local reports, the security footage showed Dr. Diffine casually strolling nude through patient areas and past the reception desk where three female employees were working.
He was then seen entering patient examination rooms before returning to stretch in the reception area and perform sexual acts, including an incident where he allegedly ejaculated on an employee who was also his patient.
An anonymous tip to authorities revealed the full scope of what was happening.
The whistleblower accused the doctor, who apparently described himself as a “naturist,” of systematically abusing his position of power.
They alleged he used salary increases and other forms of manipulation to pressure both employees and patients into participating in what they called “repulsive sexual acts.”
Medical experts brought in to evaluate the case were deeply concerned.
Dr. Bradley Diner from the Arkansas Medical Foundation testified that Dr. Diffine might be suffering from a sexual compulsive disorder that made him a genuine danger to patients and staff alike.
Perhaps most shocking of all was Dr. Diffine’s response when confronted with the video evidence.
Despite clear footage of his actions, he claimed complete ignorance, telling investigators, “I don’t know anything about that at all. I would have to see those things to have any idea what you’re talking about.”
The medical board wasn’t buying it. They ruled that his behavior was a massive violation of medical ethics and a betrayal of the sacred trust between doctor and patient that forms the foundation of healthcare.
