Chinese surgeon fired after wife reports his affairs with nurse and junior doctor at work
Philandering top doctor breaks ‘loyalty’ promise to wife after first affair by hooking up with underling for sex, is accused of malpractice
An elite surgeon from a top hospital in Beijing has been fired and expelled from the Communist Party after his wife revealed that he had affairs with several mistresses, in some cases leading to pregnancy and abortions.
Since mid-April, a tip-off letter about Xiao Fei, a senior doctor at the chest surgery department of China-Japan Friendship Hospital, a major public-funded institution in Beijing, has gone viral on mainland social media.
The letter written by his wife, surnamed Gu, who is also a doctor from another top hospital, disclosed misdeeds in Xiao’s personal and professional life.
This prompted Xiao’s employer to issue a statement on April 27, saying that based on its investigation, the accusations against Xiao in Gu’s letter were true.
China-Japan Friendship Hospital said it has decided to sack Xiao and kick him out of the Communist Party.
Xiao, 39, and Gu have a daughter, and according to Gu, Xiao started cheating on her in 2019 with a nurse, surnamed Shi, in his own department.
