SD Medical Board Reprimands Former Sanford Doctor

(Pierre, SD) — The South Dakota Board of Medical and Osteopathic Examiners is reprimanding a former Sanford Health doctor. The board issued the reprimand this week against Wilson Asfora. They found that Asfora failed to tell the South Dakota board within 30 days that his medical license renewal in Florida had been denied. His license renewal was denied after Asfora settled allegations that two companies he owned engaged in illegal kickbacks. He was dismissed from Sanford in 2019 after allegations that he did unnecessary surgeries to implant spinal devices from a company he owned.
