An OB-GYN who lost his medical license two years ago may be illegally performing surgical procedures at a cosmetic surgery center on Cobb Parkway, Cobb County police said Friday.
Warrants were obtained Friday for Nathaniel Johnson III as police investigate if he performed surgery without a license at the Hello Beautiful Cosmetic Surgery Center, according to a release.
“We had a female come to us and indicate she had a couple of procedures done,” Cobb police spokeswoman Alicia Chilton told Channel 2 Action News. Johnson restarted a business in Cobb, but it closed about a week ago, the news station reported.
Johnson's license was revoked in 2014 after he admitted to Medicaid fraud and employing an unlicensed doctor, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution previously reported. His medical license wasn't reinstated.
Johnson owned Regency Professional Health Services for Women, where he billed Medicaid more than $217,000 in expenses. He was given a 10-year sentence, but only served six months in the Fulton County Jail.
“There are definitely concerns there are more victims out there who underwent procedures,” Chilton told Channel 2. “He may have written prescriptions for them and was doing all that without a license.”
Anyone with information should call (770) 499-3945.
