The Oakland County doctor accused of sexually abusing and videotaping numerous patients without their consent over several years pleaded no contest to his charges.
Dr. Oumair Aejaz is accused of sexual abuse and hiding cameras in the changing rooms of his patients. Victims were allegedly videotaped at several hospitals.
He was bound over for trial on April 25, 2025, and appeared in court for a pretrial hearing on Oct. 9.
Aejaz pleaded no contest to two counts of first-degree criminal sexual conduct, three counts of second-degree criminal sexual conduct, four counts of child sexually abusive commercial activity, 13 counts of using a computer to commit a crime and nine counts of capture or distribute image of unclothed person.
He is expected to be sentenced on Dec. 2, 2025. He faces at least 25 years in prison.
Here is a statement from Henry Ford Health:
The charges in Oakland County are unrelated to anything that allegedly occurred in Macomb County. We remain deeply committed to ensuring and supporting the safety of our patients and team members, and we prioritize that safety in everything we do. We will continue working with any law enforcement agency that is investigating this case.
The investigation into Aejaz began when his wife tipped off authorities in August 2024. A search warrant recovered six computers, four cell phones and 15 hard drives. One hard drive reportedly contained over 13,000 videos Aejaz recorded over the last six years.
He was charged with one count of child sexually abusive activity, one count of using a computer to create or reproduce child sexually abusive material, two counts of capturing/recording children under the age of 18 while nude, two counts of capturing/recording two women over the age of 18 while nude and four counts of using a computer to commit a crime.
His bond was set at $2 million.
Dr. Oumair Aejaz, 40, of Rochester Hills, is an Indian citizen who came to the United States in 2011 for an internship in Michigan. He’s been working in the U.S. on a Visa.
He’s an internist, which means he specializes in internal medicine.
Aejaz did his residency at Sinai Grace Hospital in Detroit and then moved to Dothan, Alabama, around 2018.
“So this may stretch not just in Michigan, but to other states, and potentially, even other countries,” Oakland County Sheriff Michael Bouchard said during a press conference on Aug. 20, 2024.
Aejaz eventually returned to Oakland County to continue his practice. Police confirmed he worked at Ascension Genesys Hospital in Grand Blanc and Henry Ford Macomb Hospital in Clinton Township, though he wasn’t employed directly by either one.
Officials have been trying to figure out where else might have worked, both in Michigan and beyond.
“He was apparently a contracted physician who went to different locations for a company, rather than having his own specific practice, so we still don’t know the scope of how many facilities or venues he may have visited in that regard,” Bouchard said.
Aejaz is married and has two young sons.
His Michigan medical license was issued Sept. 13, 2018, and it was valid through Sept. 13, 2025.
His Alabama medical license expired in 2019.
Lawsuit
The attorneys filed a lawsuit in September 2024 saying dozens of women have already contacted them and they just want to get them the justice they deserve.
“We encourage our clients and all patients -- and it’s not just women, it’s children, it’s men, it’s women that believe they may have been videotaped or had uncomfortable interactions with him -- to reach out to law enforcement and begin that process as far as verification goes,” said attorney Parker Stinar in September 2024.
Two class action lawsuits were filed against Aejaz, DMC Sinai Grace and Henry Ford Macomb, surrounding the investigation that uncovered a large number of patients who were being sexually abused and videotaped against their will.
“Unfortunately, for these brief women that have come forward, these survivors or individuals that are former patients, they now have to sit around today and perhaps for the rest of their lives, wondering of these videos or photos we’re taking with them while we’re done with them,” Stinar said. “Were they sold? Were they distributed? Were they live streamed in otherwise?”
The suits filed by Stinar Gould Grieco & Hensley said medical institutions must protect patients from something like this happening. Instead, they believe the hospitals gave the doctor a platform to abuse and exploit.
“The hospitals granted him privileges and allowed him to see these patients, and unfortunately, continue with his conduct of abuse videotaping and photographing patients,” Stinar said. “We believe, in my understanding from the sheriff’s department, that perhaps he saw patients that he wasn’t even assigned to, that the number of it could be in the hundreds -- if not thousands -- during that six-year period of time.”
The attorneys behind the suit has been pleading with people to come forward if they believe they were victimized.
“We look forward to hearing from more survivors,” Stinar said. “We celebrate and respect their bravery and will protect your confidentiality.”
The attorneys promise to keep everything confidential for the people who do come forward.
The Oakland County Sheriff’s Office set up an email for people who believe they could be victims. It can be reached here: ocsosiu@oakgov.com
Officials with the Detroit Medical Center Sinai Grace released the following statement regarding Aejaz.
The DMC is committed to ensuring a safe environment for all patients who come to us for their care. Dr. Oumair Aejaz does not have privileges to admit or care for patients at DMC Sinai-Grace Hospital or any DMC hospital and has not treated patients at the DMC since completing his residency in 2015, so we do not know of any basis for these allegations.
