  • Records checked after doctor's arrest: Sophia Chan

The Health Secretary, Sophia Chan, said on Sunday that health officials have conducted checks to see that no patient received improper treatment from a doctor who's suspected of using cannabis while on duty.

The Tuen Mun Hospital doctor was arrested on Friday after sources say traces of cannabis were found in a urine sample.

He's been suspended from his work.

Chan says the Hospital Authority has checked the records of patients that he treated this month and found no problems.

She says it will also check the records for the past three months.
