Licence revoked for doc who used own sperm to artificially inseminate patients

TORONTO — An Ottawa fertility doctor who used his own sperm as well as that of the wrong donors to artificially inseminate several women caused "irreparable damage" that will span generations, a disciplinary panel with Ontario's medical regulator said Tuesday as it revoked his medical licence.

Dr. Bernard Norman Barwin betrayed the trust of patients who turned to him for help in starting a family, the discipline committee for the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario said.

The committee also expressed frustration that Barwin, 80, was not present to receive the reprimand, calling it unfair that he would not face the victims of his "disgraceful" conduct.

"It is unfortunate that at this time all we can do is revoke your licence to practise medicine and ... deliver this reprimand," said Dr. Steven Bodley, chair of the panel. "We do, however, take some solace in the fact that you are no longer in a position to cause further harm."

I hate to say it, but I remembered a troubling case in the US in which an American doctor fathered a whole bunch of other people's babies including substituting his sperm for the woman's husband's sperm. His doings were apprehended in 1989. Their dna showed that 15 of his patients wound up with babies he fathered, and many more were suspected. He was a ring-tailed tooter, that 'un.
