In this episode, Dr. Kate Dee and regulatory attorney Becky Hsiao delve into two significant medical fraud cases in Washington state. The first case involves Dr. Tami, a Seattle-based doctor who was fined $500,000 for selling unproven stem cell treatments for various diseases, including COVID-19. The second case revisits Dr. Sajan, a cosmetic surgeon who was fined $5 million for a range of fraudulent activities, including forcing patients to sign NDAs, posting fake reviews, and doctoring before and after photos. Becky provides legal insights into these cases, highlighting the importance of consumer protection and the complexities of medical advertising.
