Committee: Discipline
Decision Date: 26 Jan 2010
Summary:

On January 26, 2010, the Discipline Committee found that Dr. Eoghan Brendan O'Shea had committed an act of professional misconduct in that he failed to maintain the standard of practice of the profession. Dr. O'Shea was medical director, from 2000 to 2002 and approximately September 2005 to June 2006, of Canadian Cancer Research Group (CCRG), a private complementary medicine organization whose patient population consisted of, among others, terminally ill cancer patients. While employed at, affiliated with or consulting for CCRG, Dr.O'Shea failed to maintain the standard of practice by: a) failing to examine the organization's patients or obtain informed consent before prescribing to them; b) failing to communicate with the organization's patients' conventional medicine physicians and/or oncologists; and c) failing to make reference in his charts to communications with the organization's patients' conventional medicine physicians and/or oncologists.

The Discipline Committee ordered and directed that:

1. The Registrar impose immediately the following terms, conditions and limitations on Dr.O'Shea's certificate of registration:

(a) Dr. O'Shea shall not engage or associate himself with the provision of complementary medical treatment for terminal disease;

(b) Dr. O'Shea shall not prescribe or compound "compound products" to treat terminal disease in the context of a complementary medicine practice;

(c) Dr. O'Shea shall not knowingly or with his consent work for or associate himself with the Canadian Cancer Research Group or its related organizations;

(d) To the extent Dr. O'Shea is permitted to practice Complementary Medicine, Dr.O'Shea shall adhere to the College's policy on Complementary Medicine as may be amended from time to time, including, but not limited to, obtaining informed consent and examining patients before prescribing to them; and

(e) At his own expense, Dr. O'Shea shall complete the College's Medical Ethics and Informed Consent course, within one year of the date of this Order.

2. Dr. O'Shea pay to the College costs in the amount of $3, 650.00.

3. The results of this proceeding be included in the register.
