Dr Stefen Klein, 38, invited two young, vulnerable patients recently treated on dates while working as a GP in north Yorkshire in 2010.
One of the patients was just 18 at the time when the medic passed her a scrap of paper with his personal number scrawled on it in the Estrick Surgery car park, in York.
