Doctor accused of assaulting, harassing employee

A local doctor is accused of sexually harassing one of his employees while she was on the job.

Only Channel 11 caught up with William Castillo, a doctor practicing at an office on Brownsville Road.

“We are taking them very seriously. We met with the district attorney, met with Allegheny police, postponed the matter and hoped we will be able to resolve this,”

According to a criminal complaint, a former employee of Castillo's said she was sexually harassed, saying "she was touched on her buttocks breasts and stomach on multiple occasions" while working at the doctor's office.

The woman also says she was asked to "participate in a threesome" and she told police while at work, Castillo would "massage her shoulders multiple times.”

“It’s important to note that none of this occurred to any patient. Dr. Castillo has a spotless record, he has an office staff that has been with him for many,many years all of them support him,”

Castillo’s attorney said his client is still practicing and hopes to put this legal hurdle behind him soon.

“We are hoping for a resolution that satisfies everyone,”
