Former Michigan Doctor Sentenced to 35–60 Years After Secretly Recording Family and Patients

Oumair Aejaz, a former Michigan physician, was sentenced on Dec. 2 to 35–60 years in prison after pleading no contest to 31 counts related to sexual misconduct and illegal recordings. Prosecutors say the convictions stem from extensive evidence that Aejaz secretly recorded his wife, their two minor children and multiple women, both inside the family home and at other locations.

Key details

Aejaz, 41, previously worked at Ascension Genesys Hospital in Grand Blanc Township and at Henry Ford Macomb Hospital in Clinton Township. He pleaded no contest to multiple counts that prosecutors say included:

  • Two counts of First Degree Criminal Sexual Conduct
  • Three counts of Second Degree Criminal Sexual Conduct
  • Four counts of Child Sexually Abusive Commercial Activity
  • Thirteen counts of Using a Computer to Commit a Crime
  • Nine counts of Capturing or Distributing an Image of an Unclothed Person

The investigation began in August 2024 after Aejaz's wife provided evidence that he had been secretly recording family members in their home. Law enforcement later discovered additional hidden-camera recordings alleged to have been made at a local swim school and in hospital rooms and bedrooms.

“This sentence ensures Oumair Aejaz will never again harm another victim,” said Oakland County Prosecuting Attorney Karen D. McDonald, while also urging continued support for survivors as they recover from trauma.

Oakland County Sheriff Michael Bouchard said the exploitation of women and children—especially when committed by someone in a trusted professional role—is "absolutely unconscionable," and praised investigators for locating the digital evidence used in the case.

Civil suits and ongoing probes

Several related criminal investigations remain open. In October, three women filed separate civil lawsuits alleging Aejaz recorded and sexually assaulted them at Henry Ford Macomb Hospital and that their earlier complaints were not properly addressed. Attorneys for the plaintiffs have pursued individual claims alongside an ongoing class action.
