February 4, 2026

On May 9, 2024, the Medical Board of California placed the license of Los Angeles psychiatrist Liliane Lebas on probation for three years.

The Board’s Central Complaint Unit received an online complaint from Patient 1, who is also a relative of Lebas. Patient 1’s complaint was regarding Lebas’ prescribing of psychotropic medication. During the investigation of the complaint, Board investigators discovered that between April 14, 2018 and April 14, 2021, Lebas treated and/or prescribed medications, including controlled substances and dangerous drugs, to two additional adult relatives, Patients 2 and 3, without proper examination and without maintaining proper medical records.

On June 15, 2021, Board investigators spoke to Lebas via telephone. Lebas stated that she never treated Patients 1, 2, or 3. However, later during the call, Lebas stated she has treated Patients 1, 2 and 3 with antibiotics.

The Board’s Accusation charged Lebas was charged with failure to maintain adequate and accurate medical records, prescribing medications without medical indication, and repeated negligent acts in the care and treatment of three patients.

The Board prohibited Lebas from practicing medicine on any person outside of the normal course of her employment as an emergency psychiatrist at Exodus Recovery in Los Angeles, or any similar emergency psychiatric facility. Further, she was ordered to reimburse the Board for its costs of investigation and enforcement in the amount of $23,315.80.

Per the Board’s website, her license expires on February 28, 2026.
