June 2026 Enforcement Actions

The Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation imposes disciplinary actions on numerous licensees across multiple professions, including physicians, nurses, dentists, and private security personnel. Sanctions range from license suspensions and revocations to probation, reprimands, and fines, primarily triggered by failure to file or pay state income taxes, unreported criminal convictions, or professional misconduct. Specific measures include the indefinite suspension of physician Adam Cohen for inappropriate patient contact, the refusal to renew massage therapist licenses due to expired status or criminal records, and the suspension of athletic trainer Gregory McDaniels following a felony grooming conviction. The enforcement actions also address controlled substance violations, substandard care, and failure to comply with previous probation terms.
