Radiologist Dr. Jay Quan suspended by CPSA Hearing Tribunal

Edmonton, AB – Dr. Jay Quan, a radiologist from Calgary, was sanctioned by a CPSA Hearing Tribunal after he was found guilty of unprofessional conduct.

In February 2025, a Tribunal found Dr. Quan guilty of failing to respond to communications from CPSA (including letters, emails and phone calls) since March 2022. Under Alberta’s Health Professions Act, health professionals have a responsibility to cooperate with their regulators and respond to correspondence as required.

Dr. Quan did not attend either the merits or sanction hearing, did not send a representative to attend on his behalf and did not submit a recommendation on sanction to the Tribunal. After considering submissions from CPSA’s Complaints Director and recognizing this is Dr. Quan’s second discipline proceeding for the same type of conduct, the Tribunal issued their orders on sanction, which included the following:

• Dr. Quan’s practice is suspended for six months, scheduled to begin in June 2026.
• At his own expense, Dr. Quan must complete and pass a program on ethics and boundaries. If Dr. Quan fails to complete or pass this program, he must participate in a one-on-one remediation course with a medical ethicist.
• Dr. Quan is responsible for the full cost of the investigation and hearing, to a maximum of $40,000.
