TGMC orders action against dental practitioner for conducting unauthorised regenerative medicine training in Hyderabad
The Telangana Medical Council is taking legal action against organizers of an unauthorized regenerative medicine training program in Hyderabad. The council found that a dental practitioner was teaching advanced medical procedures to various specialists under false pretenses.
Why it matters
This case underscores the dangers of unregulated medical training and the importance of professional oversight in specialized healthcare fields.
The Telangana Medical Council (TGMC) on Friday, July 24, conducted a surprise inspection of an unauthorised training programme on cellular and regenerative medicine in Hyderabad, where doctors, dentists and AYUSH practitioners were reportedly being imparted hands-on training by a dental practitioner.
The council said it would place the findings before its General Body, forward its report to the Dental Councils of Telangana and Maharashtra, and initiate steps to register a First Information Report (FIR) against the organisers.
The inspection was carried out at Hotel Shubham Prestige in Karmanghat by TGMC member Dr. Gundagani Srinivas, accompanied by Dr. Jalagam Vijay as an eyewitness and TGMC Vigilance Officer Ramu.
According to the council, the programme, titled ‘Fellowship in Cellular and Regenerative Medicine (FCRM)’, was being conducted by Naturo Scholars and MAC International Academy. The three-day course reportedly included lectures, hands-on training sessions and certification.
