“The prevailing professional standard of care required Respondent to be available and/or to have a designee available in the event of an emergency or complication.”

The penalties included: “Permanent revocation or suspension of Respondent’s license, restriction of practice, imposition of an administrative fine, issuance of a reprimand, placement of the Respondent on probation, corrective action, refund of fees billed or collected, remedial education and/or any other relief that the Board deems appropriate.”
