Complaint Review: RYAN DUCKETT - KING ISLAND FISHING

King Island Fishing is one of the many fraudulent businesses created by Ryan and Melvin Duckett of Ion Health Usa.

Ion Health USA was founded by Dr. Melvin J Duckett who was a leading U.S. urologist.

In 1998 , Dr. Duckett failed to cooperate with a Board investigation charges that Dr. Duckett was seriously padding bills, and that some of his employees, who were not physicians, were actually performing surgical procedures. Blue Cross charged him with billing for procedures that he had advertised were 'free', billing for care not rendered, and other irregularities. He failed to respond to two subpoenas, This was a Consent Order which resulted in a 6 month license suspension that began on Dec. 15, 1999.

Since 1999 Dr. Duckett and son, Ryan Duckett have been moving from state to state with their 'fly by night' company , ION Health USA .

The Ducketts' open up an office in a new location and hire employees under false pretenses.

The sales employees sign documentation stating that they are guaranteed a salary plus commission . When payday rolls around Melvin and Ryan Duckett will either not pay any of the employees or pay a partial amount of the pay checks and blame the lack of funds on poor sales.

If sales are made , the money is collected from vendors but the ION Health products are never shipped .

Melvin and Ryan Duckett move out town in the middle of the night after they cheat employees out of thousands of dollars, run out on several months of rent & dont pay vendors thousands of dollars owed.

There are numerous civil and criminal complaints filed against the Ducketts in locations such as Maryland, Virginia and Florida and warrants out for their arrest . Somehow they always move out of town just in time to avoid being caught .

ION Health USA is not a real health care company and beware of offers of employment or health care products .

They use a phony website and have scammed several investors out of money using this fraudulent business. The website has the same mailing address of 123 N congress Ave, like the Ion Health Business. The company number on the website is a fax number, but I was able to track a home office number from a business partner which is (561) 752-1499 Also located in Boynton
