Gebhardt was charged last August with one count of sexual assault, and one count of sexual exploitation of a person with a disability. The alleged incident took place in June 2017, according to a news release from the Medicine Hat Police Service.

The complainant cannot be named due to a publication ban.

Gebhardt voluntarily suspended his practice after the charges were laid, according to the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Alberta.
