During an inspection on February 20, 2024, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued two citations to Peyman Saadat, Inc., M.D., located in West Hollywood, related to blood and blood products, according to data posted on the FDA’s website.

The FDA website indicates that the citations were delivered to the company as follows:

  • ‘The summary of records for HCT/Ps did not contain a statement that the communicable disease testing was performed by a laboratory certified to perform such testing on human specimens under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Act of 1988 or has met equivalent requirements determined by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.’
  • ‘HCT/Ps that were recovered from a donor for whom a donor eligibility determination has not been completed were made available for distribution.’

The FDA routinely inspects facilities across the nation to determine if the workplace and their products are compliant with FDA-regulated laws and regulations implemented to improve overall public health. Inspection results are then disclosed publicly.

According to its website, the FDA is a government agency that is primarily responsible for monitoring the production and distribution of human and animal drugs, biological products, medical supplies and tobacco products for safety and quality.

Information in this article was obtained from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. The source data can be found here.
