Posted on: Legally, doctor is under no limits

In light of what has happened, the insurance companies should stop referring their clients to this doctor, for their own sake!
Pacificare for one!

This doctor should absolutely have his license revoked!!
I was never examined ONCE in the 3 years I went to him. He would not touch me or even listen to my heart...ever! When he came into the office, he just sat at the desk. I thought it to be very odd. I have a Thyroid condition and hypertension. He never offered blood tests or any other test for that matter. I had to request them. When I asked about my thyroid results, he just said "That shows you're on Thyroid medication". When I asked about my high blood pressure, he just said "it was due to old age(57 then). I had a mild stroke (brain infarction) in 2007. That's when I knew I had to change doctors. I found out from my new doctor that I was being overmedicated on my Thyroid condition and I needed medication for my hypertension. Buckwalter could have killed me if I had stayed with him.
What does it take before the State Medical Examiner's Board revokes his license? More deaths? This is not only about the overprescribing of narcotics, but also the patients on any medication or treatment prescibed by him! He needs to be stopped!
