Medical pupil son of high-flying banker and Chanel designer faces deportation after posing as a surgeon on courting apps – as his outrageous texts are revealed

EXCLUSIVE 

A Yale-educated medical student who masqueraded as a surgeon to fool women he met on dating apps is now facing deportation from Australia. 

Quentin Geczy, 27, the son of a former ANZ boss and a Chanel designer, lied about his credentials on Hinge and Tinder, convincing three women he was a professional orthopedic surgeon and giving unauthorised medical advice to one of them.

The 27-year-old British national, who lives in Wolli Creek in Sydney‘s south, pleaded guilty to three counts of holding himself out as being a registered health practitioner in Downing Centre Local Court last week, following an investigation by the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA).

Now he may be facing expulsion from the esteemed Sydney University medical school who say they are ‘concerned about a number of matters involving one of their medical students’.

A student visa holder in Australia can be deported if they are kicked out of university and their visa is cancelled by Home Affairs, making them an unlawful non-citizen and subject to deportation.

Daily Mail Australia understands Mr Geczy is now considering a return to the United Kingdom.

Geczy attended the prestigious Westminster school in London before moving to Australia where he went to elite private school Melbourne Grammar. He then graduated from Yale University.

His father Andrew Geczy was previously ANZ’s chief executive of institutional banking, while his mother Antje was a designer for French fashion house Chanel. 

‘We are legally constrained in what we can say about individual cases but we take all allegations of unprofessionalism and misconduct extremely seriously – acknowledging these matters can be complex and take time to resolve, particularly when external stakeholders are involved and regulators are conducting their own inquiries,’ a University of Sydney spokesperson said.

‘When we find breaches of our policies or codes of conduct we don’t hesitate to take disciplinary action as appropriate. 

‘We also take appropriate interim measures against students pending the outcome of internal and external processes, to safeguard the community and the integrity of our teaching and learning.  

‘These can include restrictions on attending classes and clinical placements.’

The younger Geczy’s charade began in April 2023 when he matched with a woman named Hayley on the dating app Hinge.

On their first date, he told her that he was an orthopaedic registrar at Royal North Shore Hospital.

He later sent her a photo of what appeared to be a Yale University doctorate of medicine but was a doctored image of his Yale bachelor of arts degree.

Soon after their relationship ended he matched on Tinder with a woman named Rachael and referred to himself as a surgeon throughout their six-month-relationship.

He talked about operations in technical detail and the privilege he felt being able to perform surgeries. 

‘Yes, I’m Dr Geczy,’ he told her, explaining that he was ahead in his training for his age because he had trained overseas.

At one point, he sent her an X-ray of a broken hip and another of a broken arm.

Geczy described in technical language how he performed the hip surgery.

When the woman queried if he ‘did that’, Geczy replied with words to the effect of, ‘Yeah, sometimes, but I’m still assisting’.

However, the woman found both photographs on the internet and questioned if he was ‘lying about everything’.

When she demanded proof of his medical education he sent her a photo of a degree in Latin which translated to a bachelor of arts.

He also sent her a photograph of a North Sydney Local Health District ID card which had been photoshopped to replace the word ‘student’ with ‘Doctor/Ortho RMO [registered medical officer]’.

On numerous occasions he repeatedly offered to write her a prescription for the painkiller Endone and claimed he could ‘see her symptoms’. 

However, his world of lies came crashing down when the woman found his student hospital ID badge in his backpack.

During court his lawyer, Nick Hanna, claimed Geczy was struggling with anxiety, major depressive disorder and ADHD, according to a psychiatric evaluation.

He said his client’s self-esteem had also taken a hit after splitting from his long-term girlfriend and a sporting injury had impacted his rowing endeavours.

Geczy was sentenced to an 18-month community corrections order and ordered to pay a $5,000 fine and $7,500 for AHPRA’s legal costs.

A former acquaintance told Daily Mail Australia they were not entirely shocked when hearing about Geczy’s recent brush with the law.

‘He was always pretty switched on – perhaps all those accomplishments were getting to him, maybe?’ they said.

In July last year he was convicted of drug supply after police caught him with 14 bags of cocaine at Bondi Beach.

He pleaded guilty and was sentenced to a Community Correction Order for a period of three years.

He did not wish to comment when approached for comment on Thursday. 

On Friday he was seen walking outside in socks to collect a food delivery to his Wolli Creek unit block.
