A doctor in Owen Sound Ont. has been suspended by the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario (CPSO) after originally being banned from giving out medical exemptions related to COVID-19 vaccinations.
The suspension of Dr. Rochagne Kilian was posted to the CPSO website on Wednesday.
Last Monday it was announced that Kilian along with another Ontario doctor, Dr. Mark Trozzi, were both restricted from giving out medical exemptions for COVID-19 vaccines and mask mandates.
The suspension means that Kilian can no longer practice.
The interim order was made under the Health Professions Procedural Code of the Regulated Health Professions Act.
In a statement, the CPSO said an interim order such as the suspension to Kilian can be made when there is potential “evidence to support that patients would otherwise be exposed to risk of harm or injury.”
The CPSO says that more information regarding Kilian’s conduct will be made available at a later time.
