The complainants cannot be identified due to a publication ban.Manz will also have to post a sign at the front desk of his office advising patients of the restrictions on his practice, and pay a fine of $5,000.Failing to meet these conditions could result in his licence being fully revoked, and his registration in the CAS cancelled.
