Los Angeles Doctor Arrested for Sexual Battery
A Los Angeles doctor has been arrested and charged with committing sexual battery on a patient more than five years ago. According to a news report in The Republic, the San Fernando Valley doctor was arrested in connection with an incident that allegedly occurred in 2007. Officials say a woman was receiving a medical exam as part of her U.S. citizenship exam when the doctor sexually assaulted her.
He lost his license in 2011 after being accused of this incident during a licensing hearing. His license was stayed, however, and he was placed on probation. He now faces two felony charges.
