Washington dentist indefinitely suspended after missing payments

The Washington Dental Quality Assurance Commission indefinitely suspended the license of Andrew Lai, DDS.

Dr. Lai had his license suspended in December after he violated the terms and conditions of a modified order by missing fine payments, according to a Jan. 18 news release from the Washington State Department of Health.

In October 2022, the commission and Dr. Lai modified a 2020 agreed order. The order stated that Dr. Lai must pay a $3,000 fine and $10,000 in expenses, and Dr. Lai would pay $300 each month until the fine and expenses were paid back.
