KERMIT (AP) — Marshall University’s School of Medicine has placed a cardiology fellow on 30 days’ paid furlough amid a state and federal investigation of a clinic where he worked.

Marshall’s dean and vice president of health sciences, Dr. Charles H. McKown Jr., says Dr. John Theodore Tiano is barred from seeing patients or attending clinics during the furlough.

McKown says Marshall wants to look into Tiano’s moonlighting role at Justice Medical Complex in Kermit.

An affidavit filed by a federal special agent in U.S. District Court alleges that the clinic conspired with two pharmacies to defraud government assistance programs.

Court records show Tiano worked at the clinic between 2005 and 2007 while working as a cardiology fellow at Marshall.
