The Columbian on January 31, 2011 reported that a Seattle doctor accused of trading drugs for sex with a prostitute has surrendered his license to practice medicine in Washington. Last May, the state Medical Quality Assurance Commission and the Department of Health immediately suspended the license of Leonard D. Hudson (MD00010900) based on the charges. The commission accepted Hudson’s voluntary license surrender, which resolves the matter. Last October, Hudson pleaded guilty in King County Superior Court to violating the Uniformed Controlled Substances Act, and was sentenced to 12 months of probation.
