FL Medical Board Member Reprimanded For Inadequate Anesthesia

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Except the complaint originated from the Florida Dept of Health which is over the Medical Board.
More like a separate process as opposed to "over".
If any patients came to harm as a result of non-anesthesia personnel giving anesthetic drugs, he and the owner(s) of the facility will be looking at big problems.

Now we all know how healthy vascular patients typically are so it astounds me that this hasn’t led to some measure of penalty. This guy was likely dealing with ASA 3s or 4s. 🤦‍♂️

I wonder what he was doing there, anything besides veins? Stupid either way but I assume lots of veins are done with minimal sedation or the like, but they probably use sedation nurses at a minimum. Might also be some billing fraud involved.
 
And yet he is a board member who would discipline another physician for doing this.
Yup. Like Caesar's wife, Board members should be above suspicion. Of course, the same should be true for Judges, Clergy, Elected officials, etc. (chortle).
