Medical board sanctions

[EmuSteve]

Just curious if anyone knows how one would go about researching a doctors standing with their state medical board? What about doctors in other countries?

 

For example, I know H&W have a stellar reputation on this and other boards, as so several other doctors. Has anyone checked out all these doctors records with their respective medical boards? I think that by doing so and posting the results on this forum, it would be both informative to us newbies, as well as either helpful (or hurtful) to various doctors. I've searched (and will keep searching), but it's a bit tough to find the info.

 

Are doctors in the "coalition" required to have a certain record of excellent work with various medical boards?

EmuSteve,

 

It's a great question...one I'd certainly like to hear an answer to...truth is, I'm not sure.

I found the Florida state medical board website here: http://ww2.doh.state.fl.us/ (I live in Florida, so I started here).

 

I looked up a few Florida doctors, such as Dr. Epstien and Dr. Rose. Dr. Rose was the only one I found info on... It's public record, so I've copy pasted it to share:
