Chiropractor Jay Park asks board to end probation early after completing required programs
Summary
Doctor Jay Fo Park asked the Board of Chiropractic Examiners to grant early termination of a five-year probation tied to a 2021 conviction, saying he has completed required courses, paid costs and performed volunteer hours; the board took the matter under submission and will issue a written order.
Doctor Jay Fo Park asked the Board of Chiropractic Examiners on April 18, 2025, to end his remaining two years of a five-year probation so he can resume full practice without board monitoring. Park told the board he had completed the education, monitoring and volunteer work the board required and had paid the board’s cost recovery amount in full.
Park’s petition stems from a 2021 conviction tied to an alleged patient-referral rebate scheme. In resolution of the underlying accusation the board adopted a stipulated settlement on March 26, 2022, placing Park on probation for five years with standard and optional conditions. Board staff told the panel that Park had submitted all quarterly reports, his billing monitor had filed required reports, he paid $3,407.50 in cost recovery, and had passed required examinations and completed volunteer service.
In his oral remarks Park said, “I made a big mistake in my career, and I have learned my lesson,” and described completing required coursework, volunteer hours at Family Assistance Ministries and passing the California Chiropractic Law Examination and ethics requirements. In response to questions from the deputy attorney general and board members, Park said he has continued quarterly reporting and billing-monitor oversight and that the felony in his case was reduced to a misdemeanor on May 3, 2024.
Board members asked about therapy, ongoing supports and what specific practice changes his monitor required; Park said the monitor helped reorganize office procedures and billing processes and that he is increasing professional engagement with other chiropractors. The deputy attorney general noted Park must prove entitlement to early termination by clear and convincing evidence.
The administrative law judge took the matter under submission. The board indicated it will issue a written order in the coming weeks with its decision.
Park-related documents admitted into evidence include the petition packet, the board’s decision adopting the stipulated settlement, probation compliance memoranda and certificates of completed courses and volunteer service.
