The 32-year-old Goodna man is accused of claiming to be qualified to practice as a health professional, rape, wilful damage, contravening a domestic violence order and common assault.
Police will allege he assaulted a 28-year-old woman known to him several times since 2019.
Investigators believe he impersonated a paramedic over the past three years, to establish relationships with other women, give them medical advice, assistance and examinations.
The man was refused bail and is due to appear in the Richlands Magistrates Court on Monday.
