Las Vegas gynecologists - who called himself the 'Vagina Whisperer' - is accused of sexual misconduct by Nevada Medical Board: Patients say 'doctor touched them inappropriately then offered $1,000 to pay for nudes'

A Las Vegas OB-GYN doctor who coined himself the 'vagina whisperer' has become the subject of a sexual misconduct complaint filed by the Nevada Board of Medical Examiners.

Dr. George Peter Chambers allegedly took photos of patients' genitalia, and offered others to pay for nude photos for his 'portfolio.'

Chambers, who has been licensed in the state since 2003 faces a number of allegations from three separate patients between 2018 and 2020.

One patient said he 'humiliated and sexually demeaned' her during a purported examination, and used slang terms to describe his actions.

 The doctor had an Instagram account until this past Thursday under the name the 'vagina whisperer.'

Dr. George Chambers, a Las Vegas OB-GYN, who called himself the 'vagina whisperer' has been accused of of sexual misconduct

Dr. George Peter Chambers had been licensed in the state of Nevada since 2003

The first patient, a 36-year-old female, identified in the complaint as Patient A reportedly saw Chambers for a consult in November 2020.

Chambers is alleged to have used the woman's cellphone to take photos of her vaginal area before later asking the woman to text him some of the photos that he took.

Patient A said she was uncomfortable doing so as she was not sure if the data was being exchanged securely - nevertheless she sent the photos to Chambers.

The complaint also suggests that details in her medical record do not correspond to what actually happened during her examination in which she claims to have been 'humiliated and sexually demeaned' by Chambers.

Patient A contacted the Las Vegas police weeks after her session with Chambers. 

Patient B, a 35-year-old female, had also been a patient of Chambers for many years before an appointment with him in October 2018.

On that occasion, Chambers allegedly offered to pay Patient B or other patients $1,000 for nude photographs that he claimed to use in an advertisement for his practice. 

Chambers said they were 'ostensibly to use in an advertisement for his services,' and 'not for purposes of medical examination or treatment.' 

'Patient B' said Chambers would often appear 'very focused on sex' and ask invasive questions. 

'He was different from other OBGYNs,' she said. 'He wouldn't wait for me to ask a question about my sexual health, he would just fire questions away … I'm sitting in the room feeling like I have no choice but to answer these questions.'

'He also would ask me about past trauma, things like that. I was raped when I was 16 years old. He knew things like this. He was very kind. I felt heard. I trusted him with a lot of personal information.'

But her view suddenly changed when she overheard him making 'inappropriate comments' about women and their vaginas. 

He also allegedly shared private medical information with nurses including that she had been 'gang-raped'. 

When the pair were alone, he asked her: 'Have you ever posed nude?' 

Chambers had a strong presence on social media including Instagram and TikTok before he suddenly removed his accounts on Thursday

'I said, 'No, why do you ask?'', Patient B responded. 'And then he went on to tell me that he needs models to pose nude for his ads for his labiaplasty website.'

'It was very awkward. I didn't know what to do or what to say. I kept trying to steer the conversation away from that topic,' she explained to The Beast.

Chambers attempted to convince her to pose and promised copies of the photos to give to her husband.   

'But just make sure your husband doesn't know that I was the photographer. You can't tell him I was the photographer and you can't tell him where it was taken,' he warned her. 

'I want the real women, the women who have been through so much,' Chambers allegedly told her at which point he is said to have taken out his phone and showed her a photo of women squatting on camera.    

'He told me that he does this with his patients. He told me his patients get very provocative and seductive in front of him, especially when he tells them to "f**k the camera.''

'I felt violated, embarrassed and angry,' Patient B said, 'and I knew I was never going to come back there.'

The complaint filed by the Board of Medical Examiners describes his requests as 'sexually suggestive and/or sexually demeaning' to the patient and says Chambers violated professional boundaries.

In some cases it is not clear if patients were aware they were on camera

In the case of Patient C, a 27-year-old female, a similar incident occurred.  

The complaint describes how she went to see Chambers in October 2019 in order to receive treatment for pelvic pain and undergo routine gynecological care.

Patient C told Chambers she was struggling financially, the complaint said.

Chambers is alleged to have told her that he was seeking models for his 'portfolio' of work or for an advertisement offering her $1,000 to take part. 

Chambers told her he was 'seeking models to participate in a photography session in which photos would be taken of the model's vaginal area and nude body.' 

The patient said she was also promised a USB drive with 'boudoir' photos from the session, the complaint details.

Patient C says she thought it was strange that Chambers was asking for photos of her genitals because he had never performed any cosmetic procedures in that area on her.

At least one patient has alleged that Chambers' offers to photograph her were bordering on the pornographic

Chambers allegedly continued to push to photograph his patients genitals and offered up to pay up to $1,000

Two of the patients who have been identified in the complaint said that they were coming forward to prevent other women from experiencing the same treatment. 

'I knew the situation was not normal, it felt wrong, and many things that were done and said by Dr. Chambers completely shocked and upset me,' said Patient A. 'But my frame of reference kept me from recognizing, in those moments, the true nature of what was happening to me,' she told The Daily Beast.

Chambers' own website says he specialized in obstetric care and gynecological surgery.

It touted how he was the 'only board certified obstetrician and gynecologist in Nevada who is also certified in sexual health medicine,' adding, 'As a gynecological surgeon who was raised and positively influenced by women, Dr. Chambers recognizes that all women want to look and feel beautiful.'

'I am living my dream every day because I was blessed to have discovered my true purpose in life,' Chambers wrote in his bio on the site which has since been taken down.

'I use four guiding principles when I approach patient care: 1. I provide the same level of care as I would want for the women in my family. 2. I obey the basic rules of surgery to ensure a safe outcome for my patients. 3. I respect the human body; thus, I create surgical incisions that will be aesthetically pleasing to my patients and to me. 4. I take pride in my work.'

His TikTok and Instagram accounts also shared videos of surgeries and closeups of vaginas. 

'[Chambers] has demonstrated a pattern of failing to use the reasonable care, skill, or knowledge ordinarily used by obstetrician-gynecologists in good standing by repeatedly engaging in sexual improprieties with more than one patient,' the board wrote in the complaint. 

The Board of Examiners said Chambers 'repeatedly exploited his relationships with patients and violated patients' trust by engaging in sexual improprieties that constitute sexual misconduct' and that his 'repeated acts of sexual misconduct' and Medical Practice Act violations 'undermine the public's trust and respect for the medical profession.' 

Chambers has been charged with disruptive behavior, disreputable conduct, engaging in conduct intended to deceive, failure to maintain accurate medical records, continual failure to practice medicine properly, and engaging in conduct that violates the trust of a patient and exploits the relationship with the patient for financial or other personal gain. 

Chambers now has 20 days to respond to the allegations after which point the Nevada Board will set up a formal hearing.
