A Texas nurse practitioner has voluntarily surrendered his license following serious allegations of sexual misconduct and boundary violations involving patients, according to a new disciplinary report released by the Texas Board of Nursing.
The practitioner, identified as Victor Lee Ilog, a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner based in El Paso, surrendered his license on September 24, 2025, after being accused of engaging in sexual relationships and inappropriate behavior with multiple clients under his care.
Board documents allege that between 2021 and 2025, Ilog had sexual relationships with two patients and violated professional boundaries with a third by making explicit comments, sharing nude photographs, and encouraging illegal drug use.
In its ruling, the Board described his actions as a breach of ethical and professional standards, stating that they “demonstrate a lack of good professional character” inconsistent with the responsibilities of a licensed nurse in Texas.
As part of the settlement, Ilog’s registered nurse (RN) and advanced practice registered nurse (APRN) licenses have been rendered inactive. He is also barred from using any nursing-related titles or practicing within the state. The order allows him to petition for reinstatement after one year, though reinstatement is not guaranteed.
A spokesperson for Atlantic Behavioral Health Services, one of Ilog’s former employers, confirmed that he has not been affiliated with the organization since May 2025, adding that they maintain “zero tolerance for any conduct that compromises patient trust or professional integrity.”
At this time, no criminal charges have been filed in connection with the allegations, and Ilog has not publicly responded to the Board’s decision.
The case has renewed conversations around ethical boundaries, power dynamics, and patient safety in mental health practice, emphasizing the importance of strict adherence to professional codes of conduct in therapeutic relationships.
