INVESTIGATORS REMOVE ITEMS FROM RICHMOND PHYSICIAN'S ABANDONED OFFICE
(Richmond, IN)--Both the Indiana State Board of Pharmacy and the Indiana State Attorney General’s Office were in Richmond Wednesday to begin an investigation and recover abandoned items after a Richmond doctor vacated his medical office earlier this year. Dr. Vishwajit Brahmbhatt, who is generally referred to as Dr. Vish, had operated a pain management clinic in space he leased on the west side of Chester Boulevard at North J Street. After his lease expired at the end of February, the building’s owner found numerous items that had been left behind. Those items include stacks of blank Reid Health prescription pads, viles full of medication including lidocaine, a signature stamp, and patient records. The State Board of Pharmacy came Wednesday to take the prescription pads. The State Attorney General’s office was also in the building to examine other items. Reid Health issued a statement Wednesday indicating the Dr. Vish was not a Reid employee while leasing the property and that the property was not owned, managed, or operated by Reid. The investigation is expected to take several weeks.
