A Texas man has been sentenced to four years in prison for posing as a gynecologist (search) — with an office in a self-storage complex.

Authorities in Dallas launched an undercover investigation after seeing an ad in a weekly newspaper offering free medical care. A prosecutor set up the undercover sting with an investigator posing as a patient and using a hidden camera.

They say Thomas Remo wore a scrub shirt and had some medical equipment in the small kitchen of the storage facility office where he worked.

A few years ago someone put some stirrups on his back and went to a Halloween party as a Mobile Gynecological Unit.

I want to be a gynecologist for the swedish bikini team.

[Squantos]

Can't make this stuff up .....what a minute ....wheres El Roy ?

[Fierce Allegiance]

I'm not touching this thread with a 9" pole!

[Darksheare]

Well, yes.
Kitchens are optional at extra cost as well.

I'm still spinning over the fact that people didn't seem to think anything was amiss at meeting a 'doctor' at a self storage unit.
Boggles the mind.

I still want to know:
If you're trying to catch a phony gynecologist, where's the best place to hide the camera?

[Darksheare]

Got me.
There's purse cams, bra cams, pen cams, watch cams..
They can pretty much make a remote cam out of anything with enough size to hide the cam in.

This is all Bush's fault!

Also note that the man going door to door giving breast exams is not a real doctor. He just wants to see your t*ts.

The counts stem from an undercover investigation that began after authorities saw an ad in an alternative weekly newspaper offering free medical care and "fantasy exams for couples."

These women probably sued Ed McMahon claiming that he promised them millions of dollars.

[weegee]

Nothing but hoes in my storage shed.

[nmh]

Nah, hard up pervert.

Dr. Pervert is more fitting.

What a loser this one is.

"I'm not a doctor, but I did play one in an alternative weekly newspaper once..."

[Born Conservative]

I'm sure that once he had his first patient that presented for removal of a retained tampon, he would think twice about offering care for free...

[RolandBurnam]

i disagree. what you describe is a legitamate business place, a mini storage unit is a business that houses storage units, not retail and professional office space. no one normal lives in, or does business out of a mini storage unit.

They should have been suspicious of a doc calling himself Dr. Shurgard.

[TexasCowboy]

"what a minute ....wheres El Roy ?"

Shhhhh........they don't know I've got my laptop!
If y'all will kick in a little bail money, I'll teach you how to set this thing up!

[TexasCowboy]

You're probably not interested....

[Squantos]

Deal !
