A Saskatoon doctor has been accused of unprofessional conduct following a high-cost adult circumcision that included a request for the patient to text unsecured post-op pictures of his genitals.
Three charges against Dr. Amith Mulla were laid last week by the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Saskatchewan, which regulates medical practice in the province. A hearing has yet to be scheduled.
When reached Friday, Mulla’s office declined to comment on the case.
The charge document alleges an unnamed man went to see Mulla in August 2022 for consultation about a circumcision to deal with a medical issue involving the patient’s foreskin.
It claims the doctor gave the man’s mother misleading or false information about whether public insurance would cover the cost of the procedure and that the doctor didn’t refer the patient to another surgeon who could do it under public insurance.
