A man without a medical license in Colorado posed as a plastic surgeon in Lakewood, state officials said on Friday, urging the public to come forward to determine if he had committed other violations.
The Colorado Medical Board on Thursday issued a cease-and-desist order to Carlos Hernandez-Fernandez and Bare Beauty Aesthetic Care for acting without the required license to practice medicine in the state of Colorado.
A spokesperson with the Board stated that Hernandez-Fernandez, 45, was previously licensed as a surgical assistant in the state, but that license was revoked on Sept. 13, 2016.
The board alleged that on or about Aug. 2 of this year, Hernandez-Fernandez approached a prospective patient at her job and identified himself as a plastic surgeon who provides breast augmentation, rhinoplasty, and facelifts. Read the full story at our partner, Denver7.
