Sandie Peggie claims being changed beside Dr Beth Upton amounted to unlawful harassment.

She said she felt "embarrassed and intimidated" when Dr Upton started getting changed in the room.

Ms Peggie was put on leave and suspended in January 2024 pending an investigation.

NHS Fife has described the case as unnecessary and vexatious.

Dr Upton 's legal team will be able to refer to Dr Upton as a man throughout tribunal.
