Woman files complaint saying workplace forced her to be around alleged abuser
A Hamilton woman who alleges she was sexually assaulted by her chiropractor and then forced to see him and his friends for months at the bar where she worked says she’s relieved that the allegations are being taken seriously two years after she first came forward.
The woman, who asked not to be identified, says she’s encouraged that the College of Chiropractors of Ontario has decided to bring Dr. Scott Huehn before a disciplinary committee on allegations of professional misconduct.
The allegations have not been proven and a hearing has yet to be scheduled. The college declined to comment, citing confidentiality.
One of Huehn’s lawyers said her client agrees the allegations are serious. “Having said that, he is confident that when this matter is heard and evidence is presented, the allegations will be found to be false,” Samantha Kompa said in an email.
