A doctor has claimed his life has been ruined after he was wrongly named as a love cheat on a website.
Ebenezer Quainoo claims the website 'Cheaterville' alleged he was cheating on his wife with a nurse at the practice where he works.
It posted his photograph along with an account of his extra marital activities from a co-worker.
'Ebenezer Quainoo is a doctor who works where I work,' the statement on the site, which exposes adulterers, said.

'I pity his poor wife and children because he is carrying on an affair with a married nurse for over a year now.'
'They flirt at work shamelessly and meet during work hours and after work... this is not the first time this man has done this at work.'
Dr. Quainoo, from Baltimore, Maryland, claims the site, which has since removed the post, called him a home wrecker.
But the respected doctor said in legal papers the allegations published on March 11th 2011 were completely false.

He said since the posting his personal life has been affected.
His daughter saw the post and told his wife and since then he has suffered from 'alienation of affection' - a legal term for no sex.
According to Radar Online, Dr. Quainoo is seeking $350,000 in compensatory damages and $1million in punitive damages.
The doctor claimed in his March 7 suit that the item that ran on Cheaterville.com is libelous and completely false.
The Cheaterville site allows users to post details of people who are unfaithful.
Dr. Quainoo was unavailable for comment when contacted at his Baltimore practice.
