A doctor who was featured on a number of TV shows including ITV's This Morning, the BBC's Morning Live and E4's Body Fixers has been struck off the medical register.

Dr Tijion Esho has appeared in several programmes as a medical expert, but earlier this month Medical Practitioners Tribunal Service (MPTS) panel ruled that he had administered botox free of charge to a patient in exchange for sex.

Esho had admitted an improper emotional relationship with a woman and had exchanged 'inappropriate' sexual messages with her on Instagram.

He denied having physical sexual contact with the woman, who had provided sexual services on OnlyFans and via webcams, but the panel ruled against him and judged that he had sex with a patient at his clinic in Newcastle in 2021.

They also found that at a previous consultation months before that he'd stroked her hair, rubbed himself against her and made inappropriate comments about her body.

The panel ruled that a year prior, he'd made similarly inappropriate comments about the woman, rubbed himself against her and allowed her to masturbate him.

Finding that his fitness to practice medicine had been impaired by his misconduct, the panel today (27 April) ruled that Esho would be struck from the medical register.

Instagram messages sent to the woman between July 2019 and February 2022 included a number of 'inappropriate' things.

Among the messages were him saying 'Ha free mls I’d need the whole booty and more' to the woman.

"My God having you for a night/every night is a dream but if we do it for mls I break the doctors code and I’d be a dead man x lol," was another of the messages Esho sent.

In a statement, Esho repeated his denial that he'd had sex with the woman, who was referred to as Patient A, and said that while he had been 'wrong and foolish', he insisted his actions 'never crossed over into any physical sexual contact'.

He said: "I am disappointed with the decision handed down today by the MPTS.

"My conduct in communicating with Patient A was wrong and foolish. In doing so, I let down many people and I fully accept that this behaviour as a medical professional and doctor was not acceptable.

"However, I repeat categorically that the communications never crossed over into any physical sexual contact.

"Despite today’s decision, I remain as committed as ever in ensuring all patients at our clinics, many of whom have shown incredible support over the past few months, continue to receive the highest standards of treatment and care."
