The State Board of Medical Examiners has permanently revoked the medical license of Edward Lundy, a Camden County physician, following his conviction for conspiring to unlawfully distribute controlled dangerous substances, according to an April 14 announcement by Attorney General Jennifer Davenport and the Division of Consumer Affairs.
Lundy pleaded guilty in January to conspiring with others to distribute more than 1,600 oxycodone pills outside accepted medical practice. He is scheduled for sentencing in May. The Board’s Consent Order also strips Lundy of his authority to prescribe controlled substances and bars him from any patient contact or involvement in healthcare activities across New Jersey.
Attorney General Davenport said, “As New Jersey continues to grapple with the long-term effects of the opioid epidemic, doctors who recklessly prescribe drugs that are known to lead people down the path to addiction cannot be allowed to practice medicine in our state. We will continue to do everything in our power to permanently remove from practice any law-breaking doctors who helped fuel this public health crisis.”
Jeremy Hollander, Acting Director of the Division of Consumer Affairs, said, “Doctors who indiscriminately prescribe CDS pose a danger to the public that we will not tolerate. By pursuing disciplinary actions that help put bad actors like this one out of practice, we are protecting the public and upholding the integrity of New Jersey’s medical profession.”
Documents show that between April 2024 and June 2025 Lundy issued prescriptions for oxycodone without proper examinations or required safeguards. The offense involved about 1,680 oxycodone pills dispensed outside legitimate medical purposes.
