Tunbridge Wells chiropractor Christopher Foley struck off after molesting patients

A chiropractor who molested patients in the Tunbridge Wells area and secretly filmed them getting changed has been struck off.

Christopher Foley was jailed last year after pleading guilty three days into his trial.

The 67-year-old, formerly of Highfield Close, Pembury, but now living in Cornwall, was caught on his own camera.

One of the women he was filming noticed the camera's flashing red light and realised she was being recorded.

During his trial Maidstone Crown Court heard he abused the trust of patients “many times” at his Pembury Chiropractic Clinic in the High Street.

The offences involved 14 women over three years and 17 clips were found on his camera.

He admitted five offences of sexual assault and 11 of voyeurism.

He also admitted possessing 51 extreme pornographic film clips showing adults engaged in sex acts with animals.

Today the General Chiropractic Council (GCC) announced it has erased his registration meaning he can no longer practise as a chiropractor.

A spokesman said: "The GCC’s professional conduct committee felt that removal from the register was the only appropriate and proportionate sanction following the conviction."

He was jailed for four years and six months, a sexual harm prevention order was made and Foley’s name will appear on the sex offenders’ register indefinitely.

It is a criminal offence for anyone to describe themselves as a chiropractor unless GCC registered.
