WakefieldAt its meeting on July 7, 2021, the Massachusetts Board of Registration in Medicine took disciplinary action against the medical licenses of David B. Kantor, M.D., Gurmander S. Kohli, M.D. and Victor Kissil, D.O.

In a Consent Order, the Board admonished Dr. David B. Kantor, after he admitted that he engaged in disruptive professional behavior. Dr. Kantor was first licensed to practice medicine in the Commonwealth on July 9, 2008. He practices medicine at Boston Children’s Hospital.

The Board also admonished Dr. Gurmander S. Kohli’s license to practice medicine after he agreed in a Consent Order that he had engaged in conduct which has the capacity to deceive or defraud and which undermines the public’s confidence in the integrity of the medical profession.  Dr. Kohli was first licensed to practice medicine in Massachusetts on August 21, 1975.  He currently practices medicine in a private practice in Fullerton, California. He is also licensed to practice medicine in New Jersey.  

The Board accepted Dr. Victor Kissil’s resignation of his right to renew his medical license. Resignation is a disciplinary action that permanently removes a physician from the practice of medicine. Dr. Kissil was licensed to practice medicine in the Commonwealth from May 1988 until January 1993. Prior to June 2019, Dr. Kissil practiced medicine in Arizona.

The Massachusetts Board of Registration in Medicine licenses more than 40,000 physicians, osteopaths and acupuncturists.  The Board was created in 1894 to protect the public health and safety by setting standards for the practice of medicine and ensuring that doctors who practice in the Commonwealth are appropriately qualified and competent. The Board investigates complaints and determines sanctions. More information is available at www.mass.gov/massmedboard, or you may contact the Board at borimmedia@massmail.state.ma.us
