Dr David Kaye accused as fraud psychologist

Bought net psychology degree for $250

Two NSW centres set up since 1997

Awarded work in government program

A CONMAN posing as a psychologist was able to fool NSW health authorities with a PhD bought for $250 on the internet, police say.

Using the alias Dr David Kaye, 45-year-old Ali Davut Sarikaya was allowed to treat police officers and public servants with the blessing of the state Government.

Mr Sarikaya, who was arrested by Harbourside police as he attempted to board a flight to New Zealand at Sydney airport, appeared in Central Local Court on Wednesday on fraud charges and was granted conditional bail.

Police alleged the Turkish-born "doctor" claimed to be a trained psychologist, despite holding no formal qualifications apart from a bachelor of arts.

His patients included police officers, prison guards and senior legal figures who were referred to his medical practice in central Sydney through WorkCover NSW.

A statement of facts tendered to the court said Mr Sarikaya had "deceived" numerous government departments and organisations since moving to Sydney in 1997.

The court heard Mr Sarikaya had been convicted of fraud offences of a "dishonest ... identity-type nature" in Victoria in 1994.

In the years since, Mr Sarikaya, who runs trauma clinics in Sydney and Parramatta, had been building a profile as the fictitious Dr David Kaye.

Police said he used this alias to avoid scrutiny of his Victorian criminal record.

The court heard that Mr Sarikaya had gained membership of several prestigious organisations, including the NSW Bar Association, by touting himself as a doctor, which he justified using a spurious PhD.

"Inquiries indicate this PhD was purchased via the internet from an organisation in Minnesota, USA, for $249.95, and is by no means an official document enabling use of titles such as doctor," the court heard.

The police facts stated that Mr Sarikaya also obtained several identity cards, including an Australian Health Professionals Association card, in the name of Dr David Kaye to help bolster his identity.

The alleged facade was so convincing that Mr Sarikaya was approved to work as a psychologist under the NSW Health Department's Official Visitors Program.

In 2006, he was appointed to the program for three years by then health minister John Hatzistergos, now the Attorney-General, who personally signed off his accreditation.

It allowed the alleged fraudster to visit mental health patients in northern Sydney hospitals.

The above blog entry is a regurgitation of an article published by a nasty journalist working with nationwide news sometime in October 2009. 99% of the information in this blog is false and fabricated as part of a smear campaign. All 28 charges relating to this malicious article were withdrawn and the fabricated lies demonstrated to be false.

It is now becoming obvious that someone at WorkCover Victims Victoria has joined in to perpetuate the nasty smear campaign. I am sure this was never the intention of this site.

Take this crap off as it is blatantly false, defamatory and just nasty.

Everything in the above blog if false. The picture is NOT the foyer of Dr. David Kaye's Milsons Point apartment. It is the common lobby area of the apartment block. The large number of false imputations were written by a spineless coward called Yoni Bashan and his associates who are social parasites and have shown a reckless indifference to the truth.

We urge WorkCover Victims Vioctoria to delete all blogs entries associated with Yoni Bashan and his nasty associates from Nationwide News as they are demonstrably fabricated lies, malicious and defamatory.

As an injured worker who was referred to Dr. David Kaye at the Melbourne Trauma Centre I can tell WorkCover Victims Victoria that many of Dr. Kaye's current and former patients like myself have been seriously affected by the fabricated lies and the malicious smear perpetauted against Dr. Kaye. I was a prison officer who was viciously attacked by a homicidal inmate at Port Phillip Prison. Dr. Kaye and his staff helped me and saved my life. I ask that this smear against Dr. Kaye STOP.

This hideous fraudster, amazingly still angrily insists on maintaining his 'Dr Kaye' con, and has, in order to garner a fraction more credibility presumably, now taken to supplying phony names at the bottom of the lies that he posts. The desperate crook mustn't realize that they still come up as anonymous anyway! So that wasn't worth it. And I wouldn't be worrying about things like the validity of foyer photos either you idiotic moron, as it'll take all of your resources and then some, just to deal with massive amount of trouble you've created for yourself with your lies in the first place.

By your own admission you have never met him or spoken to him. get a life you hack.

Re: Blogger 25 July, 2010

You are not only malicious, ignorant and malicious but you also peddle in fabricated lies. Check your facts your moron.

So, you have met Dr. David Kaye " by your own admission". Exactly how is it that you met him. What you just picked up the yellow pages, tracked down a counsellor and found David Kaye? Maybe you needed treatment for your sociopathic tendencies and sought him out. Who knows? Who cares? What is obvious is thatyou are a pathetic little human being who has nothing better to do than fabricate lies and smear honorable people.

Take a good look at yourself and do something worthwhile with your life rather than posting anonymous toxic stuff from your toxic brain. If not, I suggest you seek urgent psychiatric help.

Well done! You have difficulty containing anything positive within yourself which is obviously full of shit.

I worked with David Kaye when he was the Head and National Manager of The Bensons Group Injury Management Service. He is an honorable, compassionate and ethical man with great integrity.

I suggest you get hold of his book Crossroads. YYou seem to be at one right now. You are a sick, deprived person who needs immediate psychiatric help. For your own sake go and get some help and stop peddling in lies you fool.

''... are social parasites who make a living peddling in lies and smearing honorable people.'' - Sarikaya/Kaye's characteristic style EXACTLY !

This deluded and hypocritical fraud happens to be precisely just what he accuses everyone else of, those that is that have chosen to be critical of his continual lying.
No surprises there of course. Let's hope that his court appointed psychiatrist can point out to this idiotic criminal that in him saying that he's never told anyone
that he's a psychologist doesn't /can't match simply due to the subject matter of his so called PhD. Astonishingly this stupid fool hasn't been able to work that out!

You are a blind, intellectually constipated nasty little coward. All you can do is smear an honest, hard working professional who has dedicated his professional life to helping those in need. I served on the community health centre board with David Kaye for 7 years.

Who the hell gave you the right to judge others.

Hide behind anonymity you coward. Don't check the facts and live in blissful ignorance. You are the real stupid social parasite as you have demonstrated to be.

Stop smearing good people.

You are in the business of smearing anyone without knowing any of the facts and you peddle in lies and misinformation. Are you related to that sick pedophile who is hiding in Queensland called Jon Jay Ray or his equally nasty smear buddy Yoni Bashan or the crooked detective senior constable mentioned in the Mosman Daily?

Come on stop peddling in lies and reveal yourself so we can all see you for the real spineless coward that you are. How can you live with yourself? How do you sleep at night?

Yo are a little insect who feeds off society. You are even lower that an insect in fact.

This man has not been found guilty of anything in NSW and from what I understand on 26 August another set of fabricated charges against him were dismissed by the Courts.

You are part of a nasty smear campaign. You are a gutless coward who hides behind anonymity and smears people.

Have you no shame? Of course not. You are a sociopathic liar and the real fraud scumbag.

M West or is it another alias for Dr David KAYE,

August 26. Charges. Accused David KAYE admitted creating false invoices and sending them to the NZ Gov't for services not provided. The accused David KAYE used excuses that it was all a joke and he wouldn't have kept the money if they'd sent it. Which part of the charges are fabricated...The only thing fabricated was the invoices and the lies told to get off.

this blog is laughable. M West is another alias of David KAYE the narsassistic fool.

This sick bastard harassed and intimidated a vulnerable patient out of their settlement after his deceptive involvement was dismissed by the tribunal. The greedy parasite shouldn't have been entitled to anything at all!

Who does one appeal too, to go on record? It would be be good evidence for the prosecutors as it illustrates how this selfish fraud worked!

It is easy enough to check the register of registered psychologists in Australia - just go to

http://www.ahpra.gov.au/Registration/Registers-of-Practitioners.aspx?SavedSearch=True

There is no registered psychologist in Australia by the name of David Kaye.

Nor is there a registered psychologist with the surname Sarikaya.

Below are just a few exerts taken from a psychologists registration tribunal, chaired by three professors. This hearing took place ten years AFTER this crook was convicted of fraud in Victoria, at the time he was convicted he was using his original name. Now, six years further along from the hearing, he still seems to be warranting attention from the various authorities for his unrelenting assaults on the public purse, amongst other things..

Date of Decision: 11 March 2004

This panel is not formally advised as to the
status, identity or qualifications of Dr Kaye. It will refer to him by this name for reasons
of convenience.

Dr Kaye “was something of a charlatan and clearly able to mislead and fool”

...had been aroused for some time as previously he had caught Dr Kaye forging his signature.
...that he had somehow been both personally and professionally compromised in his association with David Kaye.

Your abusive reaction to these facts is pathetic and really says a lot about the state of your sick mind, considering that this information has been available to the public for a while now. What did you expect? That this sort of stuff will disappear or simply just expire over time? Typically this criminal fuckwit Sarikaya has no idea, as the opposite is more than likely the case and this type of indictment has the tendency to hang around for ever...you looser

Clearly, the senior and eminently qualified members of the legitimate counseling profession regard you as a committed, greedy criminal, one that has the potential to bring the whole profession into disrepute. So you can write what you like regarding your version of 'victory' in prison, that is if the warders think you can be trusted with a pencil. The risk being as soon as you open your mouth and start your crap the other inmates will take it from you and shove it up your arse!

This banter has been hilarious, deadset hilarious. Love the to and fro, and you almost believe that this whole thing might just be a smear campaign of some sort due to the level of actual passion from the alleged "defenders" of Dr Kaye
What I did do after reading this was check the psychologist lists and could find no record of Dr David Kaye - so immediately I ask questions. Workcover NSW also have a standing statement to all agents that Dr Kaye is not to be paid - leading me to further think there is something seriously fishy about this individual?????

Any response to that??

Hey Dr Kaye

In the lite of all this don't you think it would've been better all round if you just paid the 'corrupt cop'?

I think it would've been the vastly cheaper option too!

I was curious how the Blogger July 30, 2012 1:09 PM knows about a Workcover NSW also have a standing statement to all agents that Dr Kaye is not to be paid. Are you also aware that ICAC is looking into who at workcover made those standing orders? This Dr Kaye seems to have a couple of cases in court trying to get paid. I checked the court lists and yes. It seems he has nalready concluded one and may have got paid already. That sounds fishy too.
