US EditionJunior Doctor Allegedly Spied on 400 Victims in Toilets at Three Major Melbourne Hospitals
MELBOURNE, VICTORIA, JUL 25 – Ryan Cho faces multiple charges including producing intimate images after allegedly spying on about 400 staff at major Melbourne hospitals over five years, police said.
- Ryan Cho, a 28-year-old junior doctor in Melbourne, was taken back into custody and his bail was cancelled after police discovered more than 10,000 intimate images stored on his electronic devices.
- Cho's alleged crimes followed internal investigations at Austin Hospital after a phone was found recording in a staff toilet, and police identified other hospitals as workplaces of interest between 2020 and 2025.
- Police detected thousands of files on a hard drive, including 4,500 intimate videos secretly filmed in hospital toilets and showers primarily involving female staff at Austin, Royal Melbourne, and Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre.
- Senior Constable Baykun testified Cho "devoted an enormous amount of time" tampering with toilets to set up surveillance devices, and Magistrate Henderson refused bail citing risks that could not be mitigated.
- Cho’s medical registration has been suspended, police are pursuing further charges as more victims come forward, and he is scheduled for a court appearance in November 2025, with his family providing support from Singapore.
