Villa Crespo Raid Finds House-Arrested Fake Doctor Treating Patients

Forensic work now focuses on seized devices to identify possible victims for potential charges.

Overview

  • City police detained the man at his home clinic after catching him receiving patients, despite a 2024 conviction and a one‑year house‑arrest sentence for illegal practice.
  • Judge Juan Manuel Neumann of Criminal and Correctional Court No. 24 ordered the search following a November malpractice complaint that prompted undercover checks and social‑media monitoring.
  • Officers seized more than 250 syringes, 150 needles, and 110 vials and ampoules, including expired drugs, along with anesthetics, hormones, steroids, vitamins, and six medical‑aesthetic machines.
  • The residence on Batalla del Pari 600 was sealed, the suspect was moved to a City Police lockup, and people arriving for scheduled appointments were identified for possible judicial summons.
  • Phones, computers, and handwritten patient records were confiscated for analysis to determine the scope of harm, and the Health Ministry’s SISA registry confirms he lacks a medical license.
