Malpractice is a global challenge, but in under-resourced settings, it often extends beyond negligence into outright deception. Across many of the communities we serve, individuals with little to no clinical training misrepresent themselves as healthcare professionals. These false providers endanger lives—delivering unsafe treatments, making incorrect diagnoses, and eroding public trust in legitimate care.
At Damico Health, we encounter these situations regularly. Patients come to us after being harmed or misled by individuals posing as doctors, nurses, or midwives. This isn’t an isolated problem—it’s systemic. We actively investigate these cases, bring fraudulent actors to light, and work to prevent further harm through transparency and accountability.
Our responsibility doesn’t end with exposure. Once a case is identified, we act on behalf of the patient to initiate full clinical remediation. That includes reassessment by licensed professionals, appropriate treatment planning, and restoring access to safe, evidence-based care. Damico Health is committed to protecting the integrity of medicine—and ensuring that every patient receives care from physicians they can trust.
