A man in California is facing five felony charges for allegedly posing as a licensed doctor while providing unproven medical treatments—including ones he claimed could treat cancer—to thousands of people over several years.
In a news release this week, Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascón announced charges against Stephan Gevorkian, who operated a business called “Pathways Medical” in Toluca Lake, near North Hollywood, since 2017.
Gevorkian allegedly posed as a medical doctor, despite apparently not holding a medical license of any kind in California, not even as a naturopath. Many patient testimonials on the business’s website and Google reviews appear to refer to Gevorkian as “Dr. G.”
