In the Matter of:
Dean Sherzai
License No. [LICENSE NUMBER, IF KNOWN]
11370 Anderson St Ste B-100, Loma Linda, 92354
I. INTRODUCTION
Complainant respectfully submits this complaint to the Medical Board of California requesting formal investigation and regulatory review concerning Dean Sherzai (the Respondent), identified in the attached public materials.
The public materials reviewed appear to present representations concerning the identification and management of health conditions, including Menopause as Empowerment, Not Decline, The Alzheimer’s Solution*, The Anti-Alzheimer’s Grocery List, Five-part program marketed to prevent Alzheimer’s and reverse symptoms, and Nutrition and lifestyle program presented as a comprehensive Alzheimer’s solution, that may extend beyond the Physician (MD/DO) scope in California. The materials also appear to describe paid consultations, care plans, or product sales offered in connection with those representations.
This complaint is based exclusively upon publicly available materials and does not rely upon confidential patient records, privileged communications, or non-public investigative information. The factual observations herein were assembled from an automated public-record review of the Respondent's public website and public registry records, and were reviewed and adopted by the Complainant. All observations are potential, unverified signals from public records; the Board is the sole finder of fact.
The principal public materials reviewed include https://richroll.com/podcast/mindy-pelz-926, https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0062666479/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&tag=ricroloffweb-20&camp=1789&creative=9325&linkCode=as2&creativeASIN=0062666479&linkId=a247efa723f1ff0fbdd44a0abd166bbe and the public registry and license verification sources listed in the exhibit index below.
II. STATEMENT OF FACTS
{"A. Public Marketing Representations":"Publicly posted content appears to represent that \"90% of all Alzheimer’s cases can be prevented,\" that \"for the 10% with a strong genetic risk for cognitive decline, the disease can be delayed for ten to fifteen years,\" and that there is a \"Team Sherzai’s 5-part program to prevent Alzheimer’s & reverse symptomology.\" The same public content appears to state, \"Food is the single greatest tool we have in the fight against Alzheimer’s.\"","B. Scope of Practice Concerns":"Public content appears to address \"Menopause as Empowerment, Not Decline,\" \"The Alzheimer’s Solution*,\" \"The Anti-Alzheimer’s Grocery List,\" a five-part program marketed to prevent Alzheimer’s and reverse symptoms, and a nutrition and lifestyle program presented as a comprehensive Alzheimer’s solution. The applicable licensing rules appear to treat whether these subjects fall within the Physician (MD/DO) scope in the state as a gray area for the first two topics and suggest that the listed subjects may fall outside that scope for the remaining topics.","C. Consultation and Monetization Structure":"Public materials appear to describe a consultation and monetization structure that promotes one commerce partner. The compensation model is not yet established, and kickback or affiliate signals appear on one source.","D. Storefront and Product Sales":"Public materials appear to link to Amazon as another storefront or vendor. The vendor’s public materials describe compensation for such links.","E. Complainant's Own Experience":"[DESCRIBE YOUR OWN EXPERIENCE, IF ANY]"}
III. AREAS OF CONCERN
COUNT I: PRACTICE BEYOND THE LICENSED SCOPE
Cited authority: the state's medical practice act and board advertising rules.
The public materials described in the Statement of Facts above appear to address Menopause as Empowerment, Not Decline, The Alzheimer’s Solution*, The Anti-Alzheimer’s Grocery List, Five-part program marketed to prevent Alzheimer’s and reverse symptoms, and Nutrition and lifestyle program presented as a comprehensive Alzheimer’s solution, which the cited rule text suggests may fall outside the Physician (MD/DO) scope.
The conduct described above raises substantial concerns under the state's medical practice act and board advertising rules and warrants Board investigation.
COUNT II: ADVERTISING AND PUBLIC REPRESENTATION CONCERNS
Cited authority: the state's medical practice act and board advertising rules.
The public marketing representations and testimonials described above appear to present the practice's services without consistently identifying the limits of the Physician (MD/DO) scope or the practitioner's credentials.
The conduct described above raises substantial concerns under the state's medical practice act and board advertising rules and warrants Board investigation.
IV. RELIEF REQUESTED
A. Formal investigation of the conduct described herein, including review of the Respondent's public advertising, website representations, consultation materials, and commercial structures.
B. A determination by the Board of whether the conduct described herein is consistent with the statutes and rules cited above.
