Exposing a Killer: Michael O. Sigler, Live Well Pharmaceuticals, Age Management Panama, and Medical Fraud, and the Sale of Toxic Pharmaceuticals in Panama

Introduction:

This post is a continuation of prior posts regarding an experience I had with a person by the name of Michael Orlin Sigler, who goes by the name of Dr. Michael Orlin Sigler, Executive Director of Live Well Pharmaceuticals Inc., and founder of Age Management Panama.

If you are familiar with my story, then you may skip this introduction, and begin reading from the section below titled, "Exposing a Criminal".

To summarize, Mr. Sigler represents himself, by means of his business cards, websites (which have now been removed from the web), verbal, and written communications as Dr. Michael Sigler MD.

I met with Mr. Sigler in March 2013, at the Live Well Pharmaceuticals office in Panama City, Panama, to speak about my testosterone levels, and to discuss possible treatment. During the course of the "Medical Consultation", Mr. Sigler confirmed to me that was a doctor, and was licensed to practice in Panama.

Mr. Sigler went on to recommended I take a cocktail of controlled substances, including steroids, and an extremely dangerous called GW501516, which is banned for human consumption worldwide. Mr. Sigler made this recommendation without administering blood tests.

Mr. Sigler personally prescribed these drugs to me on a prescription form that was pre-signed and pre-stamped by a licensed Panamanian doctor, whom was not present at any time during the "Consultation". I wasn't aware of this act of fraud until approximately 1 week after our meeting.

I bought these substances, fully trusting in the recommendation of Mr. Sigler, with the understanding that he was a doctor, and was licensed to sell, and administer the drugs.

Mr. Sigler personally injected me with one substance, and the rest I took myself. After just 1 week of taking these drugs I fell dangerously ill.

It wasn't until after falling ill that I began to look deeper into Mr. Sigler, and his businesses, and made several startling discoveries.

Over the course of 1 year, I have learned that Mr. Sigler does not have a license to practice medicine in any part of the world, and that he has harmed other people.

I have brought my case to the attention of the Ministry of Health in Panama, but they have taken absolutely no action.

WARNING: Mr. Sigler is a convicted criminal, and is still operating in Panama, under the support of the Ministry of Health. He continues to sell dangerous drugs to the public.

Exposing a Criminal:

The following information is the first of a planned series of document leaks into the prior criminal cases involving Mr. Sigler, as well as reporting of the investigation into Mr. Sigler's educational background. 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On February 26, 2014, I posted some information on this blog regarding Mr. Sigler's claims to have received medical training at several different institutions in North America, and Europe. 

Through the information I received, it appears that Mr. Sigler never received any form of degree or certificate from any of the institutions where he claims to have received training. Moreover, the information I received indicates that several of the institutions where Mr. Sigler claims to have received medical training, have no record whatsoever of Mr. Sigler.

In my previous post I covered the following institutions:
University of Cambridge, England
University of Miami School of Medicine
University of Toronto

Since my last post I received some additional information regarding Mr. Sigler's prior criminal offences, as well as information regarding his time at the University of Sint Eustatius, where Mr. Sigler claims he received his Medical Degree.

Below are several images from a criminal cases in Pennsylvania, and Texas, beginning in 2010, where Mr. Sigler was convicted, and served time in prison, for drug related charges.

Case No. 3-2010-mj-00104:







As you can see from the documents above, Mr. Sigler is a convicted criminal. I have several more documents in my possession, which I will be posting on this blog in the coming weeks.

It is important to note that several of the documents related to the case against Mr. Sigler have been filed under "seal", which means that the documents have been intentionally removed from the court records, and are not available to the public. 

In examining all of the documents I have, I can say that the motion to seal certain documents regarding the case against Mr. Sigler, was done in order to "preserve the integrity of an ongoing case", "insure the security of investigative personnel", "allow for the seizure of evidence", and to "permit the arrest of those charged with violations of criminal law". What this means is that Mr. Sigler agreed to assist in an ongoing investigation into other individuals, and, the details of his involvement into the ongoing investigation have been removed from the court records in order to avoid any hindrance the release of this information may pose to the ongoing investigation.

My sources tell me that a defendant will usually agree to assist in an ongoing investigation, in exchange for a lesser penalty in their own case.   


Next is an image of an email I received from the Dean of Academics at the University of Sint Eustatius School of Medicine:


Based on the newly received information above, Mr. Sigler completed 72 weeks of clinical rotations at various hospitals in the USA, which validates a previous bit of information I posted from the Meeting Minutes of September 16, 2006 of the Florida Board of Medicine Credentials Commission, in which Mr. Sigler was denied a medical license, based on what was described as a “Less than favourable evaluation and failure to disclose probation at the University of Miami", among other reasons.

However, the most important piece of information in the above email, is that Mr. Sigler appears to have never been awarded a diploma from the University of Sint Eustatius. If the above information is true, then where, and how did Mr. Sigler obtain the below?:

  
Is the above diploma a forgery, or worse, did Mr. Sigler obtain the above diploma through bribes?

All of the evidence I've provided in this post today raises some serious questions. Mainly, how does a convicted criminal manage to continue his criminal activity, through his spouse, while he was in prison, as well as for several years after being released? Also, why, with this information being in the public domain, are the Panamanian authorities not doing anything to prevent Mr. Sigler from operating in Panama?

I hope that with the release of the above evidence that the authorities in Panama will start to take notice, and begin taking m case seriously. It is absolutely frightening that a convicted criminal is posing as a doctor, selling dangerous, controlled, and banned substances, and nobody seems to care enough to do anything about it.

It has been 1 year since I brought my case to the attention of the Ministry of Health in Panama, and I have still not received any sort of response. Most recently, in February 2014, my attorney met with the director of the Metropolitan region of health, Mr. Jorge Hassan, who expressed his interest, and even promised to issue a response within 1 week of the meeting. I have not heard anything from Mr. Hassan's office since the meeting in February 2014, and he has apparently always been out of the office, or in a meeting during the upwards of 20 times my attorney has attempted to contact him to follow up since the last meeting.

Recently I received some insight into why I may have been stonewalled by the Ministry of Health. A source of mine stated to me, that, through means of bribes or favours, often cases will be deliberately ignored, or delayed by the authorities. This source also stated to me that he believed Mr. Sigler had bribed officials in the past.

This concludes my post for today. I will reveal much more info in the coming weeks.

Thank you
