greenwichtime.com on June 27, 2011 reported that the state Department of Public Health has denied a Greenwich physician’s request to have his license reinstated, despite the state Medical Examining Board ruling last month that the doctor, a registered sex offender, could resume his practice under certain conditions.

Berken was arrested when he attempted to meet the boy in White Plains, N.Y., and was instead confronted by police.
