ALCOA, Tenn. (WVLT) – The Tennessee Board of Medical Examiners suspended the license of an Alcoa doctor on March 16, after a complaint was filed that he was engaging in sexual misconduct with his patients, according to court documents obtained by WVLT News.

Randolph M. Lowry earned his medical license in 1979, specializing in internal medicine. He worked at Wellness North from 2017 until 2021 before getting a job at The Ben Atchley Tennessee State Veterans’ Home.

During his time at Wellness North, an investigation was opened by a health-related board investigator and the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation.

Investigators spoke to one patient by the initials GV who Lowry prescribed suboxone for her opioid addiction. GV told investigators that Lowry forced her to perform oral sex on him multiple times, according to the court documents.
