Central Los Angeles : DOCTOR FINED

Dr. Ivor Harewood was charged with paying a management referral company for workers’ compensation patients requiring medical examinations, said Mike Qualls, a spokesman with the Los Angeles city attorney’s office. Harewood was one of four Los Angeles-area doctors caught during a sting conducted by the Los Angeles Police Department and the California Medical Board.
