StumbleRuthe named to medical examiners board
Friday, July 30, 2010 | 6:47 a.m.
CARSON CITY – Gov. Jim Gibbons has named Donna Ruthe, a real estate executive in Las Vegas, to the state Board of Medical Examiners that regulates doctors.
The governor also reappointed Van Hefner of Las Vegas to the board. He has served since the middle of 2008.
Ruthe succeeds Rene West who has resigned from the board effective in August. The governor said Ruthe would resign from the Tahoe Regional Planning Agency to take the medical examiners position.
Gibbons also named his chief of staff Robin Reedy, who lives in Douglas County, to the Tahoe agency to succeed Ruthe. The agency works to preserve the beauty of the Tahoe Basin from over development.

I'm confused greatly.
How does a Real Estate Executive qualify to be on the state Board of Medical Examiners that regulates doctors.
What does one have to do with the other?
Thank you for your help.
I agree blondeeee5 what does a realtor know about being on this board. And we wonder whats wrong with this country.
I'm thinking she'll be a "public member", most likely taking the place of Van V. Heffner whose term expired on 06/30/10.
