Members of the Saskatoon Police Service Economic Crime Section have concluded investigation into the fraudulent activities of a Saskatoon Psychiatrist.

In February of 2022, police received notice from the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Saskatchewan of suspected fraudulent activity relating to the medical billings of a Saskatoon Psychiatrist. Investigation by members of the Economic Crime Section found that a government agency had been defrauded of more than $90,000 after being billed for fraudulent services between September of 2017 and December of 2018.

The Psychiatrist, a 65-year-old Saskatoon man, turned himself in to police on July 25, 2023 and was subsequently arrested, processed, and released on conditions; he is charged with fraud over $5,000 and is expected to appear in Saskatoon Provincial Court on August 28, 2023.
