GP beneficiary of $30 million estate did not ‘groom’ terminally ill patient: Supreme Court
The patient had genuine 'high regard and gratitude' for Dr Peter Alexakis' care, the judge concluded.
A GP who inherited most of his patient’s $30 million estate has overcome a legal challenge from the Salvation Army and three other beneficiaries, allowing him to keep the money.
For the past two years, Dr Peter Alexakis has been locked in a legal battle over the estate of Raymond McClure, who died of colorectal cancer in November 2017.
Mr McClure, who made his millions trading property and shares, had no partner or children.
Dr Alexakis had been his treating doctor since 2014.
