Smooth Operator 

I’m not sure an anaesthetist counts as an operator, but I’m going with it.

Could there ever be a good excuse for a doctor leaving an operating room to have sex with a nurse? Maybe:

The doctor added the incident happened after a “stressful time” for his family

How awful! Was there a tragic death? Crippling financial problems?

when he and his wife were failing “to connect as a couple” following the premature birth of his daughter.

Maybe not.
