Women thought he was a doctor who was going to treat their infertility issues to have children.
However, a NewsChannel 5 investigation revealed that he wasn’t a doctor — in fact, he didn’t have a license to practice medicine.
But the Tennessee Department of Health has decided to not take any sort of enforcement action against that man who proclaimed himself as a doctor, saying they did not have sufficient evidence that what he did was illegal.
Now, former patients like Lauren Miller are confused and angry.
When Miller was trying to get pregnant last year, she had three separate appointments with Farere Dyer.
“When he came in the room, he was like, ‘Hey, I’m Dr. Dyer,’ and then he sat down on one of those little rolley chairs,” Miller said.
And she wasn’t the only one.
When we met this summer with former patients of the now-closed Center for Reproductive Health, we asked the room full of women: “OK, first question. With a show of hands, how many of you were patients of Farere Dyer?”
