NEVADA – On Monday, several women accused a Reno doctor of medical malpractice demonstrated outside his Moana Lane clinic.
The Nevada Coalition accuses Dr. Samuel Chacon to End Domestic and Sexual Violence of performing needless procedures, failed operations, and abusive practices.
According to court documents, Dr. Chacon is the subject of four active medical cases.
Women’s Health Center of Reno provides obstetrics and gynecological services.
Chacon was also apprehended in October during a two-day operation near the University of Nevada, Reno to combat prostitution and other alleged sex crimes.
Organizers are now urging state politicians to assist address the doctor’s allegations.
We have contacted the attorneys for Dr. Chacon several times. We have yet to receive a response from them.
The Reno Women’s Health Center declined to comment.

I was at my first visit this morning September 6th, 2023. After seeing the reviews I still went to Dr Chacon only for him to order my first trimester blood work and refer me to a high risk center, as that is what I was told to do during my last failed pregnancy. After my uncomfortable ultrasound, I waited in the waiting room to meet with Dr Chacon and paid my fees. Next thing I know the entire waiting room and building is surrounded by FBI agents and police, demanding to speak to the Doctor. The agents ushered the few of us patients downstairs to speak with us and as I was walking out another agent looked at me, noticing my confusion and hesitation, and said ” you should find a new doctor, you’ll thank us later”. We walked downstairs and met with Monica from the State Board Of Medical Examiners. When I asked her what happened she only said “You’re going to need to call the office manager Linda to get your medical records back and consider speaking to an attorney.”
I thought you guys would potentially benefit from this early insight on a developing story. Contact me via email if you would like any additional details.
