NBI nabs fake doctor offering penile enlargement at Parañaque hotel

The National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) in the Philippines arrested a woman accused of posing as a doctor and offering unlicensed penile enlargement procedures at a hotel in Parañaque City. The suspect was caught during an entrapment operation after a married couple, who had previously heard about her through word-of-mouth recommendations, became suspicious due to her scheduling the procedure in a hotel rather than a medical facility. The couple paid a non-refundable deposit of P2,000 before filing a complaint after researching reports from the NBI and Philippine National Police about unlicensed practitioners. The suspect, identified as not holding a valid medical license, faces charges under the Medical Act of 1959 for practicing medicine illegally. Authorities warn of the dangers associated with unregulated cosmetic procedures and are investigating whether the suspect had a broader network of clients across multiple regions.
