Grace King

The Member, a registered chiropodist, faced allegations of professional misconduct including practicing at unauthorized locations, overprescribing orthotics and orthopedic shoes, failing to maintain adequate patient records, and submitting inaccurate invoices to insurers.

The Member admitted to the allegations and the Discipline Committee found that his conduct constituted professional misconduct.

The Committee accepted a joint submission on penalty, ordering an 8-month suspension (with one month remitted upon completion of an ethics course), a 9-month restriction on prescribing and dispensing orthotics and footwear, 15 months of practice supervision, a reprimand, and $15,000 in costs to the College.
