Exposing Bad Docs Who Hide From Their Past

One proposed solution: open the National Practitioner Data Bank to the public

When it comes to improving the nation's broken system of physician discipline, many advocates say the starting point should be fixing something that was created to do the job in the first place.

In 1986, Congress created the National Practitioner Data Bank (NPDB), pledging it would improve healthcare and reduce fraud and abuse. The data bank records all sorts of things: malpractice payments, disciplinary action, restrictions of hospital privileges, and other transgressions.

There are just three problems:

• The system can be gamed, so not all problem physicians appear on the list.
• State medical boards don't always check the data bank.
• And, the information is off limits to those who are most at risk: patients.

New Mexico assisted suicide bill is the most dangerous bill ever.

New Mexico assisted suicide bill is the most dangerous bill ever.

Alex Schadenberg
Executive Director - Euthanasia Prevention Coalition

House Bill 90 was introduced in New Mexico by Deborah Armstrong (Dem) to legalize assisted suicide. The bill is referred to as The Elizabeth Whitefield End of Life Options Act.

HB 90 is the most dangerous assisted suicide bill I have ever seen. 

It allows assisted suicide for psychiatric conditions, to be done to someone with an undefined "terminal prognosis," to be done by nurses and physician assistants, and it even allows it to be approved via telemedicine.

Doctors Who Make Sh*t Up-Quacks!

Doctors Who Make Sh*t Up

“It’s bad. It’s very bad.”

CNN – When 7-year-old Bailey Sheehan arrived at a hospital in Oregon partially paralyzed, a doctor said the girl was faking her symptoms to get her parents’ attention because she was jealous of her new baby sister.

But that doctor was proved wrong when an MRI showed that the girl had acute flaccid myelitis or AFM, a polio-like disease that’s struck hundreds of children since 2014.

What ever Happened to Saving Lives? No Longer the Norm!

I thought Doctor's were "supposed" to try to save people? Not make them worse and ultimately Kill them!
First pic is of my husband shortly after being admitted to St. Joseph Hospital in Nashua, NH. Second pic is after Dr. Death started overdosing him with Morphine. The third pic is after suffering a heart attack at home that we were never told about, after being harassed with death rants by a Hospice/Palliative Care APRN that wasn't supposed to be in our home, but was sent illegally and never consented to, never told she was Hospice/Palliative care. Very graphic and heartbreaking, but this is how she left him and walked out.Fourth pic, ALL treatment denied and just left to die. All in a matter of Five weeks.
