WAKEFIELD — The Massachusetts Board of Registration in Medicine took disciplinary action against the medical licenses of Hesameddin Karimeddiny, M.D., Nazaret DerKevorkian, M.D., and Mark Jonathan Rubin, M.D.

The Board ratified the acceptance of the resignation of the medical license of Dr. Hesameddin Karimeddiny, MD.  Resignation is a disciplinary action which permanently removes a physician from the practice of medicine. Dr. Karimeddiny, board-certified in internal medicine, was first licensed to practice medicine in the Commonwealth on April 1, 1977.  Dr. Karimeddiny was affiliated with Sturdy Memorial Hospital.  The Board also ratified the resignation of both Dr. Nazaret DerKevorkian and Dr. Mark Jonathan Rubin’s inchoate right to renew their medical license. Dr. Nazaret DerKevorkian, board-certified in family medicine, was licensed to practice medicine in the Commonwealth from February 5, 2003 until he entered into a Voluntary Agreement Not to Practice on May 3, 2023.  Dr. DerKevorkian last practiced at AFC Urgent Care.  Dr. Mark Jonathan Rubin, board-certified in anesthesiology, was licensed to practice medicine in Massachusetts from May 10, 1995 until November 16, 1997.  Dr. Rubin last practiced 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 borimmediamassmail.state.ma.us.
