The College of Complementary Health Professionals of B.C. (CCHPBC) has temporarily suspended a Langley-based practitioner of traditional Chinese medicine following an allegation of voyeurism involving a patient at his clinic.
In an interim order dated December 31, 2025, the college took what it described as an “extraordinary action” against registrant Changsoo Lee, citing public protection concerns while an investigation is underway. The reasons for the suspension were published online this week. The allegation has not been proven.
According to the order, a member of the public filed a complaint alleging that Lee used a mirror to look under the door of a washroom in his clinic while the complainant was inside. The incident was also reported to the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, and Lee has been charged with secretly observing or recording nudity in a private place.
The college’s inquiry committee panel found there was a prima facie case of alleged sexual misconduct and determined that an interim suspension was necessary to protect the public during the investigation and any potential disciplinary proceedings. The panel concluded that lesser interim measures would not sufficiently reduce the risk of further voyeuristic conduct while the registrant continued to practise.
The investigation remains ongoing. The interim suspension will remain in effect pending the outcome of the college’s investigation and any subsequent disciplinary proceedings.
