State suspends California-Illinois psychiatrist Howard E. Wolin

March 14, 2011

On December 13, 2010, the Medical Board of California suspended the license of psychiatrist Howard E. Wolin.  This action was the result of disciplinary action taken against Wolin in the state of Illinois, where he lives and practices. 

According to California Board’s Accusation document, Wolin was suspended indefinitely by the Illinois Division of Professional Regulation on September 23, 2010 for failure to comply with discovery requests: Wolin failed to produce documents to the Illinois board after being ordered to do by an administrative law judge; he failed to produce records pursuant to multiple signed releases from a patient he had treated using “crystals and secret methods.”
