After Wisconsin's medical examining board summarily suspended a physician's license for allegedly giving unapproved treatments to a stage IV endometrial cancer patient who later died, the physician voluntarily surrendered her license.
Victoria Mondloch, MD, ran a clinic in Waukesha, Wis., and described herself as an "OB-GYN and wellness physician." Dr. Mondloch was reprimanded twice for "substandard care of several patients," according to the Wisconsin Department of Safety and Professional Services. In the first reprimand in 2004, the board summarily suspended her obstetrical privileges before reinstating them in 2005.
The second reprimand permanently limited her license in 2013, which barred her from performing any surgical or gynecological procedure except for pelvic exams and pap smears.
Dr. Mondloch is accused of not referring a patient to a gynecological oncologist and performing an endometrial biopsy — which are banned actions from the board's previous orders — and administering "non-confirmed and experimental" treatments.
The treatment regimen included hormone therapy, vitamin supplements, diet and exercise recommendations, and exosome intravenous treatment.
The patient allegedly began seeing Dr. Mondloch in June 2021, and in May 2022, the 66-year-old patient underwent surgery at Froedtert Cancer Center, which confirmed she had stage IVB high-grade serous endometrial carcinoma. The next month, Dr. Mondloch discussed "healing bed technology" with the patient after Froedtert physicians recommended chemotherapy, the board alleges.
On Aug. 27, the patient died.
