MARYSVILLE – A Marysville physician has had her medical license suspended immediately by the state Medical Commission after she allegedly overmedicated numerous patients, leading to two deaths.
Charges state that Ann C. Kammeyer improperly prescribing opioid medication to numerous patients. She is not licensed as a pain management specialist; however, she admitted that it made up 50 percent of her practice.
Kammeyer routinely prescribed high dosages of opioids that exceeded daily limit rules. Two of her patients died because of the high dosages she prescribed, according to charging documents.
Kammeyer cannot practice as a physician in Washington until the charges are resolved. She has 20 days to respond to the charges and to request a hearing.
A phone call to her office went unanswered.
