Dr. Yolanda Alcaraz-Limcangco found guilty of unprofessional conduct

Edmonton, AB – Dr. Yolanda Alcaraz-Limcangco, a family physician from Edmonton, was found guilty of unprofessional conduct by a CPSA hearing tribunal for failing to participate in and complete an Individual Practice Review (IPR) with CPSA’s Continuing Competence department, as required by a Terms of Resolution agreement she signed with CPSA in 2018 to resolve a complaint.

The hearing tribunal found that by failing to participate in the IPR process, Dr. Alcaraz-Limcangco breached CPSA’s Code of Conduct and undermined CPSA’s ability to regulate its members and protect the public. The tribunal will reconvene at a later date to consider submissions on sanction.
