Former team doctor booked on sex assault

Gill’s arrest follows February firing amid probe into misconduct claims

COLLEGE STATION — A former team physician for Texas A&M athletics has been arrested on two charges of sexual assault.

Kory Gill, director of the Primary Care and Sports Medicine Fellowship Program at the Texas A&M Health Science Center before his February firing during investigations into the alleged sexual assaults, was arrested Wednesday and released after posting bail totaling $60,000.

An A&M official familiar with the details of the case said late Thursday that neither victim was an A&M athlete or a former A&M athlete, and that there is “zero indication” Gill ever sexually assaulted any A&M athletes, and that “there are always athletic trainers in the room when athletes are examined by a doctor.”

A second A&M official with knowledge of the complaint said one of the victims was an A&M staff member who lodged a Title IX complaint with the university, and the other victim did not appear to be associated with A&M.

Gill, 44, worked with A&M athletes through the health science center, a person familiar with his relationship with the school said.

The first victim told police that in April 2021 Gill put his “fingers in her vagina for 15-20 seconds” during treatment for back pain, before she got up from the exam room table and told him she needed to check on her dog.

She said Gill, a clinical assistant professor at A&M at the time, had been treating her for hip pain. She told police Gill later apologized to her and said “they had too much to drink” while in his office for the treatment. Gill also told her he was “irresponsible and unprofessional,” according to the report.

The second victim told police that in November 2021 Gill gave her a drink that made her “foggy” at his office at Central Texas Sports Medicine on College Station’s University Drive, and according to the statement, “the defendant then penetrated her vagina with his tongue, finger and penis.”

Both victims said Gill, a doctor of osteopathic medicine, had been drinking alcohol during their visits.

The Houston Chronicle does not identify victims of sexual assault.

A story from a little more than a decade ago on the Texas A&M Health Science Center website interviewed Gill about working with the 2011 A&M women’s basketball team during its run to the national title. The story was pulled from the website Thursday.

An A&M spokesman said late Thursday that “Gill worked periodically at games and practices during the time he was at the health science center.” He started at the health science center in July 2009.
