A Birmingham neurosurgeon has been jailed for 16 years after he was convicted of nine serious sexual offences against six female patients while pretending to examine them.
Nafees Hamid, 51, was cleared of six other counts of sexual assault relating to four other women.
Hamid - who worked at Queen Elizabeth and Priory hospitals in the city - was convicted of offences committed in 2012 and 2013.
Police have warned that a predatory surgeon convicted today of a string of sexual offences against female patients could have abused others.
Detective Inspector Ian Ingram of West Midlands Police said the conviction of Nafees Hamid may encourage more people to come forward.
"He's been a neurosurgeon for a period of time, and these are the victims that have come forward to us at the moment," he said.
"It may be that we get further victims come forward. It's important that if they do, we will help them."
"And it might show that it's been occurring over a longer period."
