These atrocities have to be brought into the light. Can’t someone with political savvy bring this to the attention of state and/or federal representatives? Can we petition the ama or nma to act as an ombudsman? Studying and commenting about the problem needs to advance to political action
Absolutely. It's a challenge rousing sufficient public - even medical community - outrage. And such is needed to push change forward. I am confident that some aspects of this are being discussed by national associations. But as importantly, physicians' counsel also needs to be aggressive and, when the matter eventually comes to a proposed settlement by the board, insist that there is to be no NDA.
This is very disturbing and although I'm not a licensed professional, I have some insight into and experience with this AA-related racket through dealing with professionally licensed individuals. I agree with you and Michael that it will be impossible for any dissenter to get due process when it works "how it works" in this captured situation.
I no longer believe in the government of the United States after my experience with the Oregon Medical Board. What I know now is that the United States is becoming very similar to operating like Soviet Bloc countries. Beware of those who want to rule over you, especially those who base their authority upon power and not reason.
Thank you for writing this article as painful as it was for me to read it. I have been trying to forget about my professional "lynching" by the Pennsylvania Medical Board in 1994. As a Black man I felt like an innocent victim of mob terrorists acting upon unsubstantiated allegations similar to what my ancestors endured in this country for frivolous or nonexistent crimes. I repeatedly tell myself that medicine is what I did for a living and NOT all that I am then try to be grateful for having the experience o working as a physician for 9 years. All in life is not fair . . . . . but this wounds continues to fester.
I believe I am a victim of the VA medical board... they have ruined my life and career and I have done nothing wrong! They would not listen to a word I would say or other professionals too... they took the erroneous report of another physician who wanted to take me down for personal reasons... and absolutely no evidence to support his claim!! I have never harmed a patient but they didn’t care about that
N today many innocent Drs are being unjustly targeted n imprisoned solely for treating n attending to thier patients as required medically professionally n by their own oath yet corrupt incompetent government agency’s are now involving themselves in medicine practicing medicine without a license n playing w lives
Not good at it iether
Total failure !!
It’s literally insanity n evil at work I believe
N medical boards instead of supporting the majority of these compassionate Drs they sold them out sad to say and are just as evil and corrupt As these politicians in government
There is nomore healthcare ! It’s a joke bad joke n patients are suffering and dying more then ever before because of it

Pls remain open to ways to come together and challenge these entities.
Please take a look at our documentary about pain refugees:
https://www.painnewsnetwork.org/stories/2020/5/25/pain-warriors-a-civil-rights-movement-for-our-time
They are refugees because doctors are terrified.
The pain treatment community is beginning to fight back. See Dr. Kline's National PAin Council. https://www.nationalpaincouncil.org/about
This is sober reading indeed and it is horrendous that doctors are having to suffer such injustice in this way.

Horrible injustice.
But it’s also malpractice.

Hoping you've got informed counsel. See the CPR website if you've like to set up a curbside consult. www.physicianrights.net
