The complaint was filed by someone not seeking a lawsuit, but someone who wanted the medical board and investigators to know how the doctor prescribes the pills. And if you have ever been prescribed pain killers, a lot of times it says "Take As Needed." Well if someone is addicted, then they will need it all the time, and if the doctor doesn't know how to prescribe pills, or does so in huge amounts, then someone of higher authority needs to regulate. If Buckwalter is not regulating the amount of medication he is prescribing, someone else needs to. The complaint was not filed to say "hey Buckwalter, you are responsible for making so many people addicts, I'm gonna get you in court." No it was because his act of irresponsibility is the cause of so many people's addictions getting worse.
Don't worry, I work for a lawyer, if the doctor tries to pull any of that, this has already been discussed with our lawyer.

Maybe you do know my brother, I wouldn't be surprised, but that is not the point. My brother had no say in this, he even got pissed when I told him how I filed a complaint and it's being investigated. Yes he took responsibility for his ADDICTION and did not blame that on the doctor, but the doctor did not help his situation...i'm sorry but if a doctor gave me 250 oxycontins every 15 days for a period of 6 months, I'd still be stuck on pills...no doctor should be prescribing that strong of a prescription for that amount in addition to other prescriptions and pain killers in great amounts, that often...he was not the only one, and yes he did charge him the same as everyone else, but for those who sold pills, he also took some of the profits. Unless you have direct contact with this doctor, I don't think you really know how he practiced.
Not sure, I guess there are alot of things that they are investigating... plus they need copies of files and prescriptions... i'm not exactly sure... i didn't ask

I am soo glad that this investigation is showing what kind of negligent doctor he is. I am sorry for those of you with what you have lost. My brother was a patient of his, and when he overdosed, I filed a complaint. This doctor is ignorant and obviously has no clue as to what he is doing...
