A Fanwood chiropractor is accused of sexual misconduct with a female patient.

The Union County Prosecutor’s Office says that Grant Babbitt, 70, was charged with criminal sexual contact.

The prosecutor says that a 30-year-old patient reported the incident to Fanwood police. She alleges that it happened at Babbitt’s Martine Avenue office in Fanwood earlier this month.

Babbit was charged on Tuesday and released pending a May 25 court appearance.

Anyone who might have additional information about the incident is asked to contact Fanwood Police Detective Sgt. Phillip Ugone at 908-322-5000.
