Doctor botched newborn's circumcision after state opted to revoke his license, parents say

Fewer than two weeks after the Board of Medicine decided to revoke his medical license because of a patient’s death, former OB-GYN Berto Lopez performed a circumcision on a 10-day-old infant for $250 cash, hitting an artery and mangling the boy’s genitalia, the parents say.

“There is something seriously wrong with his practices,” Cohen said of Lopez. “These are not the normal actions of any doctor, not even a bad doctor. He never has taken even 1% of responsibility for the deaths and injuries that he has caused.”
