   Driskill, 42, reportedly kept a stash of liquor so he could drink at work, and habitually left the room while patients were in labor, including one instance where a woman needed an emergency C-section. In one case, he wasn't present because he was having sex with another patient. According to the investigation, Driskill had multiple sexual relationships with patients and employees. 
   
   Driskill's license is currently suspended, and although he has the right to a hearing, he has not yet requested it. Driskill has also not commented on the matter. I don't know much about the Hippocratic Oath, but I'm pretty sure there's stuff in there that covers not being drunk and banging everyone.

   Suspended: Dr Christopher Driskill allegedly kept a stash of alcohol in his office and drank on the job 
   
   A doctor has been suspended by the New Mexico Medical Board after he allegedly had sex with patients, drank alcohol on the job and left women to give birth unattended. 
   
   Dr Christopher Driskill, a married father-of-four from Hobbs, is even accused of leaving a woman in labor alone because he was busy having sex with another patient, according to the board's report, shared by the Albuquerque Journal. 
   
   He posed a 'clear and immediate danger to the public' for his multiple infractions, the board ruled. 
   
   Driskill, the incoming president of the New Mexico Medical Society, has not yet appealed the decision. The board is now considering whether to revoke his license but a hearing date has not been set. 
   
   The board's report listed a number of startling incidents, the Journal reported. He has been accused of having sex with several of his patients, including some who worked for his former practice, and of prescribing drugs to a girlfriend without proper medical records. 
   
   He also allegedly drank alcohol at work and worked while he was under the influence. He even had a stash of alcohol in his office, according to the report. 
   
   He left moms-to-be to give birth unattended on multiple occasions 'within the past few years' at Lea Regional Medical Center and was once late to work so delayed a c-section, the board said. 
   
   'Family man': Driskill, pictured with his wife and their children, allegedly had sex with his patients and staff - and once missed a woman giving birth because he was having sex with a patient 
   
   'Danger': The medical board ruled that the doctor posed a 'clear and immediate danger to the public' 
   
   And in other instances, he wrote lewd personal notes in medical charts of certain patients. 
   
   'Your sexual relationships and abuse of alcohol have negatively affected your practice of medicine,' the board said in its suspension notice, the Journal reported. 
   
   In August, Driskill was fired from his job at Premier Health in Hobbs and 10 days later, Premier told his other workplace, the Lea Regional Medical Center, of his termination. 
   
   He had by then requested a temporary leave of absence and has not returned to work since - but he failed to tell the board about his termination and leave of absence, as is protocol. 
   
   Scene: He worked at Premier Health and the Lea Regional Medical Center, which are next to each other in Hobbs, New Mexico. The report accuses him of stashing alcohol at his Premier Health office 
   
   The doctor was 'president-elect' of the New Mexico Medical Society and was expected to become president of the society in May. 
   
   A representative from the organization, which represents the majority of physicians in New Mexico, said it would not comment on the matter until after the hearing.
target: – Dr. Christopher S. Driskill, one of the few OB/GYNs in Hobbs, New Mexico, was appreciated by many of his patients and admired by his colleagues. But the New York Times reports that Driskill now faces serious allegations, from drinking on the job to failing to show up at a delivery because he was sleeping with another patient at the time, and his license has been suspended as a result. The New Mexico Medical Board confronted Driskill with the accusations, which also include neglecting other patients who were in labor and writing "inappropriate notations of a personal nature into certain patient medical charts," but as of last week, the prosecutor for the board reached an agreement with Driskill that could allow him to start practicing again if it's approved by the board next month. The drama has been the talk of the town—and beyond. Cosmopolitan theorized in a headline, "This Might Be the Worst Doctor Ever," and Britain's Daily Mail, not surprisingly, covered the salacious story from a continent away. The story "had me wondering if he was drunk on the job when he did my three kids," says one Hobbs resident. The trouble started when Driskill, 42, who is married with four kids, was fired from Premier OB/GYN in August for allegedly being intoxicated while working and keeping a "personal cache of alcohol" in his office, as well as allegedly sleeping with patients. But the claims seem strange to people like Dr. Jose Garcia, a pediatrician who's worked closely with Driskill and who says he's a "health nut" whom Garcia has never seen drink at social gatherings. No criminal charges have been filed. (Click to read a happier story about a surprise baby's delivery.)
