From Friday's Globe and Mail

A Whitby, Ont., family doctor had his medical licence suspended for the second time in a year yesterday after he admitted to sexually abusing a long-time patient.

... blah blah blah ...

In their submissions to the panel, lawyers acting for the college and Dr. Henderson said it was important to note that although it was his second time before the disciplinary committee in a short time he should not be considered a repeat offender.

So what would it take to be a 'repeat offender' then?

perhaps it's his 2nd time before the board, but for a different reason?

Nope. Same reason. Different patient. All in the space of one year.

if he does it twice with the same patient, that's repeat offender.
