The Montpellier public prosecutor’s office (Herault) opened an investigation for illegal practice of medicine on Doctolib. Two false child psychiatrists were able to give consultations.
Two fake doctors on the online appointment platform Doctolib. This is what was the victim of this mother who wishes to remain anonymous. Last June, she wanted to make an appointment with a child psychiatrist in Hérault for her two children. The consultation is done by videoconference. Very quickly, the exchange with the practitioner seems suspicious to him.
“When I talk about my children’s medication, she doesn’t ask me for the dosage. There, I’m flabbergasted. But as I have crazy confidence in Doctolib, I can’t imagine for a single moment that I’m dealing to a crook”, confides Carole, victim of a fake doctor. She will never receive a prescription, only a care sheet, obviously false, without a doctor’s registration number. The victim, the council of the order of doctors as well as Doctolib filed a complaint.
