A former family doctor has been found guilty of indecently assaulting young girls at his surgery.
Antony Collis, 59, of Stonegate, near Wadhurst, East Sussex, was found guilty of eight counts of indecent assault involving five girls aged under 14.
The Old Bailey was told the girls were assaulted during examinations behind a curtain while their mothers innocently waited on the other side.
The offences were committed over a 10-year period until 2003.
'Abuse of trust'The court was told that pornographic images of children had been viewed on Collis's two computers which were seized after his arrest.
Judge Peter Rook remanded Collis in custody for sentencing on Friday and warned him he was facing a "substantial" prison sentence.
