Dr. Mach placed no limit on the type of drugs that he would prescribe, allowed customers to choose the type and brand of drug that they desired for their self-stated alleged medical conditions, provided no limitations on the quantity of drugs that customers could obtain at one time or within a particular time period, and did not monitor dosage in any way. See, e.g., Moore, 423 U.S. at 142-43, 96 S.Ct. 335; Katz, 445 F.3d at 1026-28 (affirming a conviction where there was testimony that the doctor received no medical history, rarely performed physical exams, and provided month-long prescriptions every two weeks); see also United States v. Paskon, No. 4:07-CV-1161 (CEJ), 2008 WL 2039233, at *5 (E.D.Mo. May 12, 2008) (collecting cases "regarding the scope of `professional practice' . . . in the context of criminal prosecutions of physicians under 21 U.S.C. § 841"). The fact that Dr. Mach was paid per order approved also supports a finding that his prescriptions were for other than a legitimate medical purpose but rather for his "personal profit."
See, e.g. , United States v. Butterbaugh , No. C14–515, 2015 WL 4660096, at *1 (W.D.Wash. Aug. 5, 2015) ; United States v. Paskon , No. 4:07–CV–1161, 2008 WL 2039233, at *1 (E.D.Mo. May 12, 2008) ; Salcedo , 2003 WL 21196843, at *2.--------
