A doctor is facing federal charges for allegedly running a pill mill out of his offices in Roswell and Buford, where the U.S. Attorney’s Office said he “illegally prescribed excessive amounts of narcotics.”
Isaac Sved, 65, of Gainesville has been indicted on charges of maintaining premises for drug trafficking, unlawful dispensing and distribution of controlled substances, and conspiracy to commit money laundering.
The U.S. Attorney’s Office said Sved ran the operation through FamCare in Roswell and Valere in Buford, which are now occupied by other businesses.
Sved was registered with the Drug Enforcement Administration to prescribe controlled substances, including the opioid Oxycodone, according to a federal indictment. It states that patients received minimal or no evaluations before Sved prescribed pain medications such as Oxycodone, Alprazolam, and Carisoprodol.
