> Racer, This is the first time that I disagree with you to some extent. I feel he should contact an attorney and let him know what happened. That way he can advise him of who and how to contact the AMA licensing bureau. He can also do an MD search on www.choicetrust.com. You do have to pay for the information but it will tell you if he has any pending lawsuits, his credentials, etc. It's not that expensive. That way he will know which way to proceed. Maybe he wouldn't even need that lawyer if something turns up. The problem of going to a new pdoc and telling him what happened is not always believed by the new pdoc. That is unfortunate. Fondly, Phillipa
You can usually get info about charges on the internet through the state medical board, or state licensing board.
