WEEKS after his dental registration was suspended, Peter Terzi from Terzi Dental in Kalamunda has also had his nursing registration suspended by the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA).
An AHPRA spokesperson confirmed that Mr Terzi’s nursing registration was suspended on March 20 by the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia.
“We can’t discuss individual cases beyond what is publicly available,” the spokesperson said.
“A decision to suspend a practitioner’s registration can only be made by a board using immediate action or interim powers.
“Immediate action decisions are appealable to a responsible tribunal.”
Registration suspended for Kalamunda dentist reported Mr Terzi had his dental registration suspended on March 8.
Mr Terzi’s legal team said they have commenced proceedings in the State Administrative Tribunal to appeal the boards decisions to suspend his dental registration.
“Dr Terzi intends to do the same in relation to his nursing registration,” the legal team said.
“Dr Terzi denies there is a reasonable basis to suspend his nursing and dental registrations.”
