Committee: Discipline
Decision Date: 24 Nov 1994
Summary:
In November 1994, Dr. Hauffe pleaded guilty to a charge of professional misconduct, as defined in s. 29(33) of Ontario Regulation 548/90, as amended, in that he engaged in conduct or an act relevant to the practice of medicine that, having regard to all the circumstances, would reasonably be regarded by members as disgraceful, dishonourable or unprofessional. The Discipline Committee accepted this plea, and found Dr. Hauffe guilty of professional misconduct. The Committee agreed to a joint submission as to penalty, and consequently ordered that Dr. Hauffe be reprimanded, with the fact of the reprimand to be recorded on the Register. The Committee also ruled that Dr. Hauffe's licence to practice be suspended for a period of two months.
