The Washington State Department of Health has taken disciplinary or other action against the following local health care provider through the department’s Health Systems Quality Assurance Division.
In August 2025 the Department of Health summarily suspended Cynthia Louise Allen’s (NA00033493) registered nursing assistant credential pending further disciplinary action. In April 2025, the Department of Social and Health Services determined Allen financially exploited a vulnerable adult and placed her on its long-term care abuse and neglect registry. Placement on the registry prohibits Allen from working with or having unsupervised access to vulnerable adults.
In May 2025 the Department of Health released substance use disorder professional trainee Sascha Ramon Stokley (CO61577540) from the terms and conditions of a 2024 agreement and ended compliance monitoring.
The department’s Health Systems Quality Assurance Division works with boards, commissions, and advisory committees to set licensing standards for more than 80 health care professions (e.g., dentists, nurses, counselors). Information about disciplinary action taken against medical doctors and physician assistants can be found on the Washington Medical Commission (WMC) website. Questions about WMC disciplinary actions can be sent to [email protected].
Information about health care providers is on the agency website. Click on “Look up a health care provider license” in the “How Do I?” section of the Department of Health website (doh.wa.gov). The site includes information about a health care provider’s license status, the expiration and renewal date of their credential, disciplinary actions and copies of legal documents issued after July 1998. This information is also available by calling 360-236-4700. Consumers who think a health care provider acted unprofessionally are encouraged to call and report their complaint.
