10/02/09 'Affair' by the Greenwich Hospital O.R.

Playing doctor at hosp - NY POST
A prominent, married Connecticut surgeon repeatedly had sex with his mistress in a sterile wing of Greenwich Hospital within feet of "patients, operating rooms, nurses and staff," according to allegations contained in legal papers.

Dr. Stephen Carolan, 51, even "took photographs of his erect penis" in the same secure area of Greenwich Hospital, where he heads the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department, and later gave the revealing photos to his mistress, according to claims made by the woman before a court.

The mistress, Jill Kent, further claims in the papers that Carolan told her to get a hepatitis C vaccine or test after sleeping with her and that he "illegally injected her with Botox treatments" despite not being authorized by the hospital or his employer to do so.


The seamy allegations surfaced in a lawsuit Carolan filed last month in Bridgeport Superior Court against his now-former lover, Kent, charging that she defamed him and inflicted emotional distress by making a series of false claims against him on the Internet after he ended their affair.

Kent, in turn, has filed a reply and a counterclaim, alleging defamation by Carolan, which details their alleged trysts near the O.R. and what she describes as Carolan's amateur porn photography, among other things.

When The Post called to ask about his lawsuit against Kent, Carolan immediately said, "I have no comment," before hanging up.

A rep for the hospital, George Pawlush, when asked about the situation, replied: "We will review the matter."

Carolan's suit said he began having an affair with Kent -- the owner of a Greenwich business called Electronic Interiors -- in February 2008.

Carolan said that when his wife learned of the affair, she "demanded that [he] end it, which he did," last December.

Kent, however, said in her court filing that their affair continued until this past spring.

According to Carolan's suit, since the couple broke up, "defendant Kent has conducted a defamatory vendetta against" the doctor "with an escalating series of malicious falsehoods that she has published on the Internet."

Kent also is accused in the suit of making online postings in August "which appeared as if [they] were authored by" Carolan's wife, claiming that he was "a pervert," among "other heinous accusations."
