Committee: Discipline
Decision Date: 13 Jun 1991
Summary:
In June 1991, Dr. Peoples pleaded guilty to a charge of professional misconduct, as defined in s. 27(27) of Ontario Regulation 448/80, as amended, in that he failed to provide within a reasonable time and without cause a report or certificate requested by a patient or his authorized agent in respect of an examination or treatment performed by him. The Discipline Committee accepted this plea and found Dr. Peoples guilty of professional misconduct. Consequently, the Committee ordered that Dr. Peoples be reprimanded, with the fact of the reprimand to be recorded on the Register; that he be fined $3000.00; and that, should the Doctor fail to pay the fine and/or fail to present himself for the reprimand within sixty days of the Order becoming final, his licence to practice would be suspended until the terms were satisfied.
