Police will lay an additional 775 charges against a junior doctor accused of filming staff in toilets across three major hospitals.
Ryan Cho, 28, remains on bail, after he allegedly filmed hospital staff by concealing a phone in a mesh bag inside staff toilets at the Austin Hospital, the Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre and the Royal Melbourne Hospital.
Cho was initially charged in July and August, but police said on Wednesday they would lay hundreds of additional charges, bringing the total to 908.
The charges include stalking, producing intimate image and installing optical surveillance device.
The 28-year-old faced court in August after more than 10,000 videos and images were allegedly found on Cho's devices.
It's alleged the material, created between 2021 and 2025, shows staff using the toilet or shower facilities, with their genital and anal areas exposed.
Police allege the files were categorised into different folders referencing each of the three hospitals.
Prosecutor Russell Hammill at the time argued Cho should be refused bail because he posed an unacceptable risk of endangering the community and fleeing the jurisdiction.
Mr Hammill noted while Cho's parents had put forward a $50,000 surety and temporarily moved to Melbourne to support him, they could not watch him 24/7.
Cho had been secretive throughout the alleged offending and he could conceal any re-offending from his parents, the prosecutor argued.
Justice James Elliott granted his bail application three hours earlier after finding his time on remand could be longer than any eventual jail term.
The judge noted Cho was experiencing oppressive conditions in custody and it would be better if he could have psychological treatment.
The 28-year-old ignored questions as he walked out of court in August, although his lawyer George Balot told reporters it "remained to be seen" whether he would contest the charges.
Cho will next appear in court in February.
