Jayant Patel
Pharmacist Jayant Patel made headlines after his registration was cancelled due to his involvement in selling stolen medication valued at $126,000 on Trade Me. Following a disciplinary hearing, he was found guilty of professional misconduct and sentenced to six months' community detention. Patel's actions came to light when the pharmacy owner discovered excess stock of nicotine lozenges and reviewed CCTV footage, leading to an investigation that revealed Patel's dishonest behavior. Despite repaying a significant portion of the stolen funds and expressing remorse, his registration was revoked to protect the public from his actions.
