LOS ANGELES — A 45-year-old Studio City man has been charged on suspicion of falsely claiming to be a licensed doctor and practicing medicine on thousands of individuals, the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office announced Monday.
“Practicing medicine without a license is not only a criminal activity in California, it can cause irreparable harm to the health of unsuspecting people, some with serious illnesses, who believe they are under the care of a licensed physician,” District Attorney George Gascón said in a statement.
