 New Jersey Dr Parvez Dara’s license has been suspended by state regulators after an inspection of his Toms River office turned up several health code violations.

Almost 3,000 of New Jersey Dr Dara’s patients were warned to get tested for hepatitis B after five cancer patients tested positive for the disease. The disease is transmitted through exposure to infected blood.

While inspecting the oncologist’s office, investigators found blood on the floor of the chemotherapy room and blood in a bin where blood vials are stored. They also found open medication vials and unsterile saline and gauze.

Apparently the New Jersey Dr has a history of health code violations going back as far as 2002.

The warning letter sent to his patients suggested they be tested for the liver disease hepatitis B and hepatitis C . It also suggested testing for HIV AIDS.
