The Navy has removed Rear Adm. Brian Monahan as the Capitol’s attending physician amid an investigation into alleged misconduct, Punchbowl News reported, citing multiple sources familiar with the matter.
Monahan has held the position since 2009. His office serves lawmakers, congressional staff and the Supreme Court. A Navy biography describes his background in internal medicine, hematology and medical oncology.
An inspector general report is expected to become public later this week. The initial report did not specify the alleged misconduct or name a replacement.
