## Resource

A 63-year-old women’s health clinic owner in Essex County, Esney Davis-Sharpe, just pleaded guilty to running a fraudulent medical operation for years—performing gynecological procedures herself without a license and billing insurers, including Medicaid, using fake doctor names. Over 2,500 fraudulent claims were submitted between late 2020 and early 2024. Her clinic was shut down by state health officials, and she now faces 180 days in jail before four years of probation—and a lifetime ban from owning any medical facility. Her co-defendant, a former medical student, also faces charges. Patients trusted her care, but the fallout is severe. Sentencing looms next month.
