Former Berkshire GP jailed for indecent assaults
Stephen Cox has been sentenced to 22 years
A former family doctor has been jailed after he was convicted of 12 indecent assaults against patients in Bracknell.
Dr Stephen Cox, aged 65, of Stockton Mill, Welshpool, Shropshire, was found guilty of 12 counts of indecent assault following a trial lasting four weeks at Reading Crown Court, which concluded on Friday (4/10).
He was acquitted of four further counts of indecent assault.
Returning to the same court, Cox was sentenced to a total of 22 years in prison.
Cox was a family doctor in Bracknell during the 1980s and 1990s, practicing at the Ralphs Rides surgery, now known as the Waterfield Practice.
Over a number of years, Cox indecently assaulted seven of his patients, on the pretext of conducting routine medical examinations.
All of his victims were women.
