Psychiatrist Sheila Williamson suspended on suspicion of impairment

June 12, 2014

On April 14, 2014, the Kansas State Board of Healing Arts issued an Order Emergently Suspending License on psychiatrist Sheila Williamson. Thought the Board’s document is significantly redacted, it makes reference to the section of states law which states that if “[t]he licensee has the inability to practice the healing arts with reasonable skill and safety to patients by reason of physical or mental illness, or condition or use of alcohol, drugs or controlled  substances." It further states that “There is cause to believe Licensee's ability to practice medicine is impaired to a degree which would violate” the state law.
