(CBS 13) SACRAMENTO Kaiser Permanente released the following statement regarding the arrest of Dr. Scott Takasugi on charges of sexually expoiting a patient.

"After receiving patient care com­plaints, we contacted the sheriff's depart­ment and have cooperated fully with their invest­i­ga­tion. We encouraged the patients to file police reports as well. We have begun the process to terminate the physician and to report him to the medical board. We apologize to the patients for his inappropriate actions. We have established a special tollfree number for patients with concerns: 1-888-378-0018.
