*682BRYAN, Judge,
concurring specially.
I concur in the main opinion. Because Dr. Cressman did not file a timely notice of appeal with the Alabama Board of Medical Examiners (“the Board”), we must dismiss the appeal. I write specially to note that the provision in § 34-24-380(c), Ala. Code 1975, merely requiring an appeal from a decision of the Board to be “filed, commenced, and maintained in the Alabama Court of Civil Appeals” may be a trap for the unwary. I urge the legislature to clarify the procedure for appealing from a decision of the Board.
THOMPSON, P.J., concurs.
