When doctors in New York face investigationsm or charges, it can be scary. If you’re a doctor, you worked hard for your license and now a regulatory body is threatening to take it away from you. Now – you might be worried that you could lose it. We understand how serious this is, our law firm is ready, and willing to help you through this difficult time in your life.
What Happens If You Lose Your License?
Under New York law, the Office of Professional Medical Conduct (OPMC) can investigate complaints against doctors – this is their mandate. If the OPMC, the governing body for medical licenses, decides you violated rules, you could face big penalties. You might get a warning, be fined, or even lose your license. There could even be a criminal referral, depending on the conduct in question.

If you are charged with a crime—like drug offenses, fraud, or assault—your medical license can be in danger, and medical licensing authorities have a reputation for investigating every single complaint. New York Penal Law explains the punishments for these crimes. You can read more at the NY State Senate website.
Possible Penalties
