The jury has been selected for the trial of a Hawke's Bay doctor accused of stupefying and indecently assaulting male patients.
David Lim is facing 13 charges at the Napier District Court - five of stupefying and eight of indecently assaulting four victims, while working as a GP at The Doctors clinic in Hastings.
It is alleged Lim targeted the victims while they were alone in toilet cubicles, a treatment cubicle and a darkened surgical room, between January and September 2015.
The 41-year-old doctor allegedly gave the male patients a sedative called Hypnovel.
A jury of five women and seven men will now hear the Crown's opening address before the first of 24 witnesses give their evidence.
