UMass physiatrist indicted on sex assault charges

A Worcester (Massachusetts) area physiatrist has been indicted on charges of sexually assaulting two women last year at local hospitals. A Worcester County grand jury handed up indictments Tuesday charging Ho Yin "Aaron" Shiu, DO, with rape and four counts of indecent assault and battery. Shiu left UMass Memorial Medical Center and the University of Massachusetts Medical School in July, according to a statement issued after his initial Oct. 1 arraignment in Central District Court. He entered into a voluntary, non-disciplinary agreement with the state Board of Registration in Medicine not to practice medicine in Massachusetts, according to the board’s website.
