Redding doctor found guilty on 63 counts of sexual assault of female patients

SHASTA COUNTY, Calif. — Shasta County District Attorney Stephanie A. Bridgett announced former neurologist Dr. Hamid Rabiee has been found guilty of all 63 counts of charges against him in connection with the sexual assault of numerous female patients.

Dr. Rabiee was arrested back in 2018 for accusations that he groped multiple women in his office during examinations. The assaults came to light in early 2018 after Redding Police received multiple complaints about the doctor. According to Shasta County Court Records, Rabiee first appeared on Redding Police's radar after a woman came forward about an assault in 2007. Four other women would accuse the doctor of assaults in 2015, 2016, and 2017.
