A Tennessee gynecologist has been arrested on serious charges related to his medical practice in Memphis. Dr. Sanjeev Kumar, 44, is facing allegations of enticing patients to engage in illegal sexual activity, adulteration of medical devices, misbranding of medical devices, and health care fraud.
The U.S. Attorney's Office in Memphis revealed that Kumar is accused of conducting unnecessary medical procedures on patients using re-used medical devices that were held under unsanitary conditions. The charges also include claims that Kumar did not inform patients about the re-use of these devices and falsely billed Medicare and Medicaid for the procedures.
