was the name of His practice in Zurich-Oerlikon Belmed, the Internal medicine specialist was also involved there in beauty treatments, especially Tattoo-distances. He had specialized as one of the first in Switzerland. Several media interviewed him on the subject. That was in the second half of the zero years.
In the same period the first official inspection took place at the doctor. The cantonal control of Therapeutic products and the Canton police searched his practice and his private apartment. They noted that he gave medicines without a permit, and that he had not documented the inputs and outputs of the anesthetic properly.
woman died of his drug
In the case of a re-inspection seven years later, the cure control found various deficiencies relating to narcotics. In fact, the doctor used a relaxed approach to drugs. He himself consumed regularly cocaine and 2015 before a court, accused of negligent homicide. He had given a friend, a bouncer, a bag of MDMA, the active ingredient of Ecstasy.
The bouncer gave the drug a well-Known, a 27-year-old woman after the consumption collapsed and died. The district court in Bülach cleared the two men from the allegation of negligent manslaughter, sentenced them, but due to repeated infringement of the narcotics act, the medical doctor in addition due to acquisition and possession of weapons without a permit.
It was not better – on the contrary,
in 2016, the Supervisory authority checked the doctor twice and found no improvement, on the contrary, The standard of quality had deteriorated, he was “unacceptable”. So it is in a recently published judgment of the Zurich administrative court. It is noted, also, that the doctor documented his patients high doses of sleep, and sedatives made, the addictive, and this is just sloppy. So, he was able to make, for example, “about the whereabouts of the 555 packs of Dormicum and 110 packs Ritalin no data”.
“About the whereabouts of the 555 packs of Dormicum and 110 packs of Ritalin, he could make no details.”The Zurich administrative court
In July 2017, the Health Department revoked the doctor’s licence to practise independently in the Canton of Zurich. And not only that: they also spoke a definite ban on the self-employed, this applies for the whole of Switzerland. In September 2017, the practice had to close in Oerlikon.
In October 2018, the Prosecutor’s office had a criminal warrant against the physician because of multiple Violation of the therapeutic products act and the health act. He received a fine of 500 francs. In April 2019, the district court of Zurich in liquidation by the Belmed gmbh, at the end of August, the bankruptcy proceedings.
The doctor didn’t want to accept the prohibition from practising a profession and rekurrierte against the Directorate of Health. The administrative court supports the decision of the authority. Overall, the doctor were to blame “in such a numerous and partly serious misconduct” that the court comes to the conclusion that his self-employed activity constitutes “a serious threat to public health”.
“Massive intervention into economic freedom”
the ban for the independent exercise of the profession definitely is, the court is also appropriate. Although it notes that this was “the strictest Discipline” and a “massive intervention into economic freedom”. However, the public interest and that of the patients to a “trusted and their profession carefully performing Person” outweighed the private interest of the doctor to be allowed to independently practice.
As an employee, he must continue to be medically active. However, he must inform the future employer about the disposal of the Directorate of Health. Whether the 58-intended to Years of of doing this, was not to be. Also, whether he draws the judgment of the administrative court. From this it is apparent that the doctor is penniless and a free-of-charge right to counsel.
