Overview

  • The Primary and Preventive Health Services Ministry issued a public warning on Friday that anyone who received injections or other esthetic medical services from Max F. Klein should contact Health Link (811) for referral to a blood and body fluid exposure (BBFE) assessment.
  • The College of Physicians and Surgeons of Alberta says Klein has had no active practice permit since 2015 and that his registration was cancelled in 2022 after a 2015 finding that he administered an illicit substance to a colleague without consent.
  • Health officials warned that treatments from Klein could have exposed clients to blood‑borne pathogens such as hepatitis B, hepatitis C and HIV and said referred patients will receive BBFE assessment and any needed post‑exposure care.
  • The Alberta Crown Prosecution Service confirmed it discontinued proceedings against two Edmonton‑area RCMP members, Daniel Mayowski and Sgt. Sheldon Robb, after key evidence changed following an ASIRT investigation that began on Feb. 16, 2024 and led to charges in August 2025.
