A Fountain Valley doctor had his California medical license revoked after accusations of sexual misconduct
When a registered nurse was looking for a place near work to get vitamin B-12 injections, she went to Yelp and found a clinic with good reviews.
On July 19, Administrative Law Judge Matthew Goldsby affirmed accusations in a California Medical Board complaint against Dr. Sean Ataee and agreed to revoke his medical license. The decision was adopted by the Medical Board on Aug. 6 and becomes effective Sept. 5, according to documents. Later during the session, when she was told to lie on her back, the doctor raised her right arm and touched her shoulder and armpit before moving his hand down to move her medical gown and expose her breast before touching and squeezing it, documents allege.
In an examination of the patient’s hip rotation, she was instructed to walk in circles while the doctor walked behind her with his hands on her hips outside her clothing, documents said. As she walked, the doctor’s right hand moved down the front of her medical scrub pants and into her underwear while she could “feel him press his hardened groin against her butt.” She froze and refused his instruction to bend over, documents said, at which point the doctor “backed away and left abruptly.
