Edward Lundy, who ran a family medical practice in Gloucester County pleaded guilty in January to  knowingly conspiring and agreeing with others to distribute and dispense more than 1,600 oxycodone pills outside the usual course of professional practice and not for a legitimate medical purpose,  Attorney General Jennifer Davenport said.

In a consent order with the State Board of Medical Examiners Lundy agreed that his license to practice medicine and surgery in New Jersey will be permanently revoked, Davenport said.

An investigation determined Lundy engaged in repeated acts of gross negligence, malpractice, and professional misconduct; by prescribing or dispensed opioids  indiscriminately or without good cause, Davenport said. 

Between April 2024 and June 2025, Lundy issued prescriptions for oxycodone without performing adequate physical examinations, assessing for physical and psychological dependence, performing required urine drug screening, or addressing the risks of chronic opioid use, as required by law, Davenport said. Lundy worked with another licensed prescriber in his medical practice to distribute oxycodone outside the usual course of professional practice and not for a legitimate medical purpose, Davenport said.

 Lundy distributed 1,680 oxycodone 20 mg pills, Davenport said.
