§ 2252 Cancer Treatment Violations

Key Takeaways

  • •If you treat cancer in a way that breaks the rules in Chapter 4 of the Health and Safety Code, you're doing something wrong.
  • •If a court tells you to stop doing something with cancer treatment and you don't listen, that's also wrong.
  • •Doing these things can get you in trouble for acting unprofessionally.

Example

A doctor starts using a new method to treat cancer that hasn't been approved by the health department.

If the health department finds out and tells the doctor to stop, but the doctor keeps doing it anyway, the doctor is breaking the law and can get in trouble for acting unprofessionally.
