Former doctor sentenced in fondling case
BAKERSFIELD, Calif. – After numerous delays, a former doctor has been sentenced for fondling female patients.
Esmail Nadjmabadi was sentenced to three years of probation, 60 days of work release and 560 hours of community service.
Nadjmabadi pleaded no contest last April to one charge of sexual exploitation by a physician, which could have sent him to prison for a year. His sentencing was delayed eight times.
“To wait such a long time, it doesn’t seem just,” said Fabiana Florez, one of Nadjmabadi’s victims, through a translator after the sentencing.
Nadjmabadi surrendered his medical license last month, according to documents from the Medical Board of California. He was also restricted to treating only male patients after the charges were brought against him in 2006.

Doctor reinstated after sexual transgressions
The Medical Board of California on Wednesday reinstated the license of Bakersfield doctor Esmail Nadjmabadi.
After undergoing professional boundaries training, Nadjmabadi was placed on seven years’ probation. During that time, he is prohibited from supervising physician assistants and from engaging in the solo practice of medicine.
An accusation was filed against the Bakersfield internist in 2006 after several female patients complained of sexual improprieties. In 2009, Nadjmabadi pleaded no contest in an administrative hearing to sexual exploitation by a physician.
The board’s formal accusation had alleged sexual misconduct by Nadjmabadi against six female patients in 2005, including touching inappropriately, remaining in the examination room alone with them while they disrobed, failing to provide patients with gowns, and performing examinations that were not medically indicated.
