Dr. Benva Lazar gives breast exams... he's a dentist.

[Dakota Valkyrie]

A San Jose dentist suspected of fondling a patient under the pretext of performing a breast examination has been arrested.

Benva Oshana Lazar, 56, was taken into custody on suspicion of sexual battery by fraudulent representation.

Lazar was booked into Santa Clara County jail. Lazar's bail was set at $50,000 and he is no longer in custody.

The alleged victim, a 23-year-old woman, told police that she was being seen for a routine dental examination by Lazar on Sept. 18. During the visit, Lazar expressed concern to the patient about her health and the rise in cancer diagnoses. Lazar then allegedly performed what he called a medical breast examination on the patient and emphasized the importance of self-examinations.

During the investigation, detectives learned that Lazar might have touched other patients as well under pretext of performing breast exams. Because the alleged touching was performed for professional purpose, Lazar could face felony charges.

"There were comments made that this wasn't an isolated event," Lt. Mark McIninch of the Sexual Assaults Unit said. "We'd like to know about it."

I checked his website: http://www.drbenvalazar.com/
No mention of breast exams under "Procedures".

He does have a "Dentist's Prayer" on there:

Lord, be with me daily as I practice dentistry.
May I treat with gentle hands all who put their trust in me.
May my calm assurance help ease their fears
to relax the tense adults and dry the children's tears.
May I treat each patient with competence and skill,
whether a difficult procedure or a tooth that I must fill.
As I diagnose and treat be with me all the while,
and reward me with my patient's lovely, healthy smile.
Amen.

There has to be a stanza missing on that prayer... maybe
Let no one notice when I cop a feel
I just want to know if they are real

Looks like his prayers were NOT answered because at least one patient is not rewarding him with a smile.
