As a chartered engineer, I'm required to report to my institutions (in my case the RAeS and the IMechE) if I've been convicted of any criminal offence. Whilst I'm aeronautical and mechanical engineer, the same would apply to a chartered civil engineer or a chartered computer engineer.
But this chap wasn't convicted of anything: He was hauled over the coals in the same very public way as if he'd been sh*gging his patients.

And then merely got a wrist slap. What a waste of a tribunal.

QDMcubed is right - regulation if doctors' private lives is going in a very worrying direction.
