Michigan Doctor Oumair Aejaz Sentenced to 35–60 Years for Sexual Misconduct

Civil claims targeting hospitals move forward as authorities review thousands of seized videos.

Overview

  • Aejaz pleaded no contest to 31 counts, drawing a prison term of 35 to 60 years and a requirement to register as a sex offender.
  • Victims described lasting trauma in impact statements, and the judge condemned his conduct as beyond words before imposing sentence.
  • The case began after his wife alerted authorities in August 2024, leading investigators to seize multiple devices and hard drives, including one reportedly holding over 13,000 videos.
  • Investigators say recordings and assaults spanned homes, a Rochester Hills swim school, and hospital settings where Aejaz worked as a contract physician, including Ascension Genesys and Henry Ford Macomb.
  • Civil litigation is active, with a reported $140 million class settlement involving Henry Ford disputed by some plaintiffs’ attorneys as additional claims and reviews continue.
