For one, the administrative law judge who heard his case and made the ultimate decision had no medical knowledge. My whole career, my whole reputation is on the line, being judged by someone with no medical experience whatsoever. That's not right. We've uncovered the judges making the ultimate ruling don't have to have any medical knowledge. There is no appeal, no checks and balances here.
All sanctions remain in place until an appeal is brought to civil court.
Indeed, there's never been a successful appeal against the board. We've also uncovered patients don't have to complain for a doctor to be investigated by the board. Other doctors, or anyone else, can complain and at any time. After an initial complaint, a doctor can be investigated. There's no statute of limitations.
