The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) has revoked the DEA Certificates of Registration for Lona Bibbs-Walker, D.D.S., after finding that her continued registration would pose an imminent danger to public health and safety. The Georgia Board of Dentistry revoked her authority to practice dentistry, and evidence showed she failed to maintain accurate records and account for controlled substances. Despite these allegations, Dr. Bibbs-Walker did not request a hearing, leading to the default judgment against her and further supporting the DEA's decision to revoke her registrations. The decision highlights the importance of compliance with state and federal regulations for handling controlled substances.
Simple Explanation
The DEA took away the special permission for a dentist named Lona Bibbs-Walker to give out certain medicines because she didn't keep careful track of them and is no longer allowed to be a dentist in Georgia. She didn't ask for a chance to explain herself, so they decided she can't have this permission anymore to keep everyone safe.
