If you’ve lived in Dallas for any length of time, you know how tracking a beautiful home to its owners can usually lead to an interesting business success background story. That’s kind of our meat and potatoes here at Daltxrealestate.com.
Sometimes, unfortunately, it leads to a for-sale sign when the owner is found to have built the home with ill-gotten gains.
Such is the fate now of the doctors indicted and sentenced in the Forest Park Medical Center saga, a $40 million kickback scheme that, put simply, paid physicians to direct patients to the now-defunct Forest Park Medical Center along Central Expressway in North Dallas.
The Dallas Business Journal reports that surgeon Shawn Henry was sentenced March 17 to seven and a half years in prison for his role in the kickback scheme. Dr. Henry was also ordered to pay more than $6 million in restitution.

Two other spine surgeons involved in the scheme, Michael Rimlawi and Douglas Won, were also sentenced this month. Dr. Rimlawi reportedly received almost $5 million in bribes; Dr. Won received almost $6 million, according to the report.
There homes are both fabulous and have been featured here on Daltxrealestate.com.
Dr. Won’s house is being marketed by Roxann Taylor.
Dr. Rimlawi‘s house is not currently on the market, but has been in the past and marketed by Clay Stapp.
(The three surgeons, along with pain management physician Mrugeshkumar Shah, MD, were found guilty of bribery and both paying and accepting kickbacks in a 2019 trial.)
While prosecutors argued the physicians referred patients to Forest Park in exchange for money to advertise their practices, it’s well known in medical circles that insurance reimbursements are a complicated structure, which helped some of their practices grow substantially.
