Wow. Interesting. So glad someone is listing things like that. However, it is by no means exhaustive. I know of a few doctors in our town who have had some major things going on and serious disciplinary actions and they are not on the list. I wonder how some get on the list and others don't? Also, unfortunately this does not show the majority of doctors who cause brachial plexus injuries since they usually just settle out of court and no disciplinary action or report is ever taken.

The information provided on the above website may be available for free on your state's medical board website. For California the web address is :

http://www.docboard.org/ca/df/casearch.htm

here is an example of an OB/Gyn doctor listed in California that I would avoid going to.... This is freely available public information. Check this out:

http://www2.dca.ca.gov/pls/wllpub/WLLQR ... LTE_ID=790

Actually this isn't the whole story on this doctor but to post anything about him that isn't public information might violate the rules of UBPN's message boards.
