Virginia Board of Dentistry committee fines Dr. Eun Young Lee $1,000, orders three-hour risk-management course

A special conference committee of the Virginia Board of Dentistry on Sept. 19, 2025, assessed a $1,000 monetary penalty against Eun Young Lee, D.D.S., and ordered that she successfully complete a three-hour continuing-education course in risk management within six months of the order.

The action followed an informal conference in which Dr. Lee appeared with counsel Juliane C. Miller to discuss allegations set forth in a Notice of the Board dated May 1, 2025. Deputy Executive Director Erin T. Weaver reported the Committee’s determination: "The Committee assessed Dr. Lee a monetary penalty of $1,000.00," and that the risk-management course requirement was part of the order.

Committee member Emelia H. McLennan moved to adopt the Committee's decision; the motion was seconded and passed. The record shows the Committee convened a closed meeting for deliberation under § 2.2-3711(A)(27) of the Code of Virginia before returning to open session and certifying that only matters exempt from open meeting requirements were discussed.

The order sets the education requirement to be completed within six months from the date of entry of the order. The transcript does not specify the deadline date for entry of the order or whether additional monitoring, probationary terms, or reporting requirements were included. The committee approved the decision and continued with other business.

Ms. Weaver and Ms. Miller were recorded as participating in the proceedings; the minutes do not include a roll-call tally for the motion to adopt.
