  • Rohan Sahdev (29), was twice over the legal limit when he hit a car at Liverpool
  • The Liverpool University graduate was handed a lengthy ban and to pay £4,000
  • He was one of the city’s most popular dentists in 2017 after he got into great shape.
  • He claimed that cutting out alcohol had made him lose weight.










Following a crash of his Mercedes, the cosmetic dentist that made a name for himself was fined by drink driving.

Dr Rohan Sahdev, 29, had more than twice the legal alcohol limit in his blood when he hit another car in Liverpool in July 2020.

The Liverpool University graduate was handed a lengthy ban and told to pay more than £4,000 in fines.

After turning his beer belly into six packs in just nine months, he was named one of the “hottest dentists” of New York City four years ago.

He claimed that cutting out alcohol had made him lose nearly two-stone and helped him build muscle.

When he was hit by another car in Liverpool, Dr Rohan Shdev (29), had twice the legal limit of alcohol in his blood.

But prosecutors said Sahdev was well over the limit when he crashed into a black Audi on July 4, 2020, and appeared drunk when found by members of the public.

After leaving his vehicle, the dentist returned to it and was found about an hour later by police.

The breathalyzer found that he was at 81 microgrammes for every 100 millilitres blood. This is more than twice the legal limit of 35 microgrammes.

Sahdev had argued that he was above the legal limit as he had consumed alcohol immediately after the crash, but magistrates convicted him at his trial in October.

He was sentenced today at Liverpool Magistrates’ Court for drink driving, failing to stop after an incident and failing care.

Sahdev was banned from driving for 20-months. He was also fined £4,035 and ordered to pay £650 in costs and a £190 victim surcharge.

The dentist was featured in an article that addressed two-stone weight loss and muscle building.

He was 25 years old when he spoke out about his struggle to maintain weight, even though he had been a student for seven year and weighed in at 16 stone.

Four years ago he was dubbed one of the 'city's hottest dentists' after turning a beer belly into a six-pack in nine months

He was nicknamed one of “the city’s most popular dentists” four years ago after turning a beer belly in to a six pack in nine months.

However, he began working out regularly and eating right to lose weight.

He began to go six days per week, focusing mainly on bodybuilding and one cardio session each week.

He said: ‘Strict dieting wasn’t maintainable for me, but flexible dieting is something I find a lot easier to carry out and maintain.

“I love dining out. It’s a cliché but balance is key. This gives me something I look forward to, and helps me stay motivated.
