The Tennessee Board of Medical Examiners has taken decisive action by suspending the medical license of Dr. Atif Atyia, a physician based in Johnson City. This suspension follows charges of rape filed against him last year, and it comes amid new allegations of sexual misconduct involving two other victims. The board issued this summary suspension on March 25, reflecting the seriousness of the accusations. Dr. Atyia, who is 69, now faces significant professional and legal challenges as the investigation continues. Further details can be found in the board’s official report.
