Jason Jimenez Surgical Assistant License Restricted

The Texas Medical Board issued a temporary restriction on Jason Jimenez's surgical assistant license effective April 2, 2026, based on his arrest for Aggravated Sexual Assault of a Child on October 1, 2025. The restriction imposes two mandatory conditions: Mr. Jimenez is prohibited from any patient care involving individuals under 18 years of age, and he must be directly observed by a physician at all times when performing surgical assistant duties.

Healthcare facilities employing surgical assistants should verify that staff with restricted licenses are properly supervised and restricted from caring for minor patients. Employers should review credentialing procedures to ensure compliance with Board restrictions and monitor for additional Board actions, as the temporary restriction remains in place until the Board takes further action.
