A physician who knowingly violates the inherent trust patients place in their doctors does irreparable damage. I encourage anyone with concerns about the conduct and practices of this physician to report their concerns to my department.
A Grand Rapids healthcare worker has been charged for allegedly operating under a suspended license. 52-year-old Dr. Husam Thamin Abed, M.D. faces one count of unauthorized healthcare practice, according to Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel’s office.
