Wallace E. Gonsalves, Jr., MD: Debarment Order
Document Number: E9-25322
Type: Notice
Date: 2009-10-21
Agency: Food and Drug Administration, Department of Health and Human Services
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is issuing an order under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the act) permanently debarring Wallace E. Gonsalves, Jr., MD, from providing services in any capacity to a person that has an approved or pending drug product application. We base this order on a finding that Dr. Gonsalves was convicted of a felony under Federal law for conduct relating to the regulation of a drug product under the act. After being given notice of the proposed permanent debarment and an opportunity to request a hearing within the timeframe prescribed by regulation, Dr. Gonsalves failed to request a hearing. Dr. Gonsalves' failure to request a hearing constitutes a waiver of his right to a hearing concerning this action.
