Date of Decision: 01 Aug 2008
Summary of Decision:
On August 1, 2008, the Discipline Committee found Dr. Kooner to have committed acts of professional misconduct for failing to maintain the standard of practice of the profession and by an act or omission relevant to the practice of medicine, that, having regard to all the circumstances, would reasonably be regarded by members as disgraceful, dishonourable or unprofessional. In addition, the Committee also found Dr. Kooner to be incompetent in that his care of a patient displayed a lack of knowledge, skill or judgement that demonstrates that he is unfit to continue in practice or that his practice should be restricted.


On November 28, 2008, the Discipline Committee ordered the following:

1. The Registrar suspend Dr. Kooner(s certificate of registration for a period of three (3) months, commencing January 5, 2009.

2. The Registrar impose the following terms, conditions and limitations on Dr. Kooner(s certificate of registration, as of the date of this Order:

(a) Dr. Kooner shall be prohibited from practicing allergy medicine and alternative allergy medicine. This shall not be construed as preventing Dr. Kooner from providing emergency care to a patient in an urgent situation.

Summary of Decision:
On July 9, 2001, the Discipline Committee found Dr. Kooner guilty of professional misconduct for failing to maintain the standard of practice of the profession. The Committee also found Dr. Kooner to be incompetent in that his care of a patient displayed a lack of knowledge, skill or judgement that demonstrates that he is unfit to continue in practice or that his practice should be restricted.

On November 15, 2001 the Discipline Committee ordered the Registrar to revoke Dr. Kooner’s certificate of registration effective immediately.

On December 12, 2001, Dr. Kooner appealed both the decision and the penalty decision of the Discipline Committee to the Ontario Superior Court of Justice (Divisional Court).

On December 27, 2001, a single judge of the Divisional Court granted Dr. Kooner’s motion to stay the penalty order on certain conditions.

The Court ordered that the Discipline Committee order of November 15, 2001, revoking Dr. Kooner’s certificate of registration in Ontario is hereby stayed pending the appeal and on the following terms:

1) That the appellant does not practice medicine in the area of allergy or any related field such as clinical ecology. He may practice in the areas of internal medicine and respirology only;

2) That there be no indication on the appellants letterhead, business cards of any other documentation of his ability to practice in the area of allergy, clinical ecology or alternative medicine related to allergy;

3) That the appellant cooperate with the College in setting up a plan of reasonable supervision for his practice as set out above;

4) That the appellant comply with the recommendations made by specified physicians insofar as they apply to general office procedures and practice;

On December 9, 2002, a panel of the Divisional Court granted Dr. Kooner’s appeal and remitted the matter to a new panel of the Discipline Committee on the condition that Dr. Kooner be restricted to practising medicine only in the fields of internal medicine and respirology and shall not practice in the area of allergy or any related field such as clinical ecology. The Court awarded Dr. Kooner $20,000 in costs and $7,688 in disbursements, plus GST.
