Yorkville Cosmetic Surgery Centre: Disciplinary Panel

College Of Physicians And Surgeons Of Ontario Dept: Dr. Eli Judah appeared before a disciplinary panel of the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario to face allegations regarding the treatment of 29 patients at his Yorkville Cosmetic Surgery Centre. The patients visited his private facility on Bloor St. W. for procedures ranging from breast lifts and buttock augmentation to large-volume liposuction, according to The Star. Despite his lack of appropriate training, Judah administered IV sedation during operations and excessively sedated patients, according to an agreed statement of facts. The findings drew on reports from expert plastic surgeons who observed Judah performing surgeries, interviewed him and examined patients medical charts and a Yorkville doctor who performed cosmetic operations without any surgical qualifications admitted Tuesday to professional incompetence and failing to maintain standards of care. Judah is a general practitioner, and is not certified as a surgical specialist in Canada nor qualified as an anesthesiologist, the panel was told. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
