Section 422.38 - Injunctions against unlawful practice

It shall be unlawful for any person to practice, or attempt to offer to practice, medicine and surgery, or other areas of practice requiring a license, certificate or registration from the board, as such practice is defined in this act, without having at the time of so doing a valid, unexpired, unrevoked and unsuspended license, certificate or registration issued under this act. The unlawful practice of medicine and surgery or other areas of practice requiring a license, certificate or registration from the board, as such practice is defined in this act, may be enjoined by the courts on petition of the board or the commissioner. In any such proceeding, it shall not be necessary to show that any person is individually injured by the actions complained of. If it is determined the respondent has engaged in the unlawful practice of medicine and surgery or other areas of practice requiring a license, certificate or registration from the board, the court shall enjoin him from so practicing unless and until he has been duly licensed, certificated or registered. Procedure in such cases shall be the same as in any other injunction suit. The remedy by injunction hereby given is in addition to any other civil or criminal prosecution and punishment.
