Inappropriate touching leads to Vernon chiropractor handing in registration
The College of Chiropractors of B.C., in a hearing slated for Monday, July 31, will permanently cancel Murray Stephen Kievit’s registration.
The college will also require an undertaking that Kievit not engage in any further practice of health care, and he must pay $1,000 in costs. Kievit does have past disciplinary actions on his record, resulting in suspensions and fines from the college, and he was found not guilty of sexual assault in 2000 following a trial.
Kievit was reprimanded by the college, suspended for three months and required to have a chaperone present for two years when treating female patients “involving sexually sensitive areas.” He also had to attend a course on gender sensitivity, boundary issues and communication, and write an apology letter to the complainant.
