Doctor's DEA Bid Sinks Over Missed Hearing Deadlines
Published Date: 4/16/2025
Notice
Summary
Dr. Moustafa M. Aboshady’s application to register with the DEA in Salt Lake City was denied because he’s barred from federal health programs like Medicare and Medicaid. He asked for a hearing but missed key deadlines to respond properly, so the DEA moved forward without his full defense. This means he can’t legally handle controlled substances, affecting his medical practice and income starting early 2024.
