Heads up on CALIFORNIA doctors. 'The Medical Farce of California'
I just read an alarming (but eye opening) piece about how the California Medical Board is very LAX in diciplining (dangerous, deceptive, deviant) doctors and can withhold some disclosure of misconduct. Essentially, the implication is that the Califoria medical board is not really a PATIENT advocacy board but rather a doctor advocacy board. Interesting read. Here's the link:
https://mbcfarce.tumblr.com/As an option to fill in the lack of information GAPS found on the official California Med Board site; 'Breeze' and/or as an ADJUNCT to information (or lack thereof) you will find on the Med Board site, there is a patient advocacy group who elaborates more on disciplinary actions than does the official California Med Board. In some cases they cite media articles. But in others, they kick up actual Med board documents or legal documents you won't find on the Med board site when you do a search on a doctor.
The link to that is:
http://4patientsafety.org/mdb/search.phpIt allows you to enter the doctor's name and if he has disciplinary actions, they make pretty clear what they are. They also cite media articles. Although they DON'T list all doctors (it's a limited patient advocacy group), in some cases, they DO 'get the goods' on 'wrong doers' that the California Med board makes unavailable. If the doc is 'clean' it kicks up no info. But if he/she is 'dirty', they've got the dirt on them.
It's not a 'be it and end all' source for complete information but apparently, NOR is the info one finds on the California med board site for that matter. However, it's certainly sufficient as an ADJUNCT to stuff like planted reviews on 'pay for positive publicity' commercial websites, and doctors dominating the media with promotional puff pieces.
I tip my INSIDER private members off on some of the stuff I find in there. But in the interest of PUBLIC patient advocacy, I think this site is best not left hidden and under wraps.
That said, I hope this makes an addition to your 'research' on California doctors.
