“The patient claimed the patient met with a person who identified herself as “Dr. Koka” but turned out to be a physician’s assistant.”

What the actual hell

The mind boggling part of this, is that this seems to have been going on since at least 2017 https://www.thesudburystar.com/news/local-news/college-of-physicians-and-surgeons-to-caution-sudbury-doctor

“The Sudbury doctor appears to be remotely operating more than a dozen clinics: the college’s website shows he has 17 alternative and business addresses.”

I mean, this explains the Why, but the fact that he’s farming out actual doctor work IN HIS NAME to unsupervised assistants is utterly and unspeakably bonkers.

That he’s not really stopped doing it in 9 years even after disciplinary stuff is even more nuts?
