Attorney For Physicians In Texas

Anyone can file a complaint with the Texas Medical Board (TMB), and that can start a process that could potentially upend your professional life. Whether or not the allegation has merit, the complaint will be reviewed by the board’s investigators if it falls under their purview.

What might seem like something minor could quickly become concerning, possibly affecting your job, your career, and your income for years to come. If the Texas Medical Board determines that you’ve violated the Texas Occupations Code, discipline could range from a reprimand to license revocation.

We can assist in all phases of the license defense process, including:

• response to the complaint letter from the TMB that contains the initial allegation
• formal investigation by the TMB
• informal settlement conference
• negotiations for the Agreed Order (the board’s recommended disciplinary action)
• hearings with an administrative law judge
• mediation
• appeals
• compliance with an Agreed Order or probation

The most common types of complaints against doctors in Texas include:

• deviations from standard of care
• professional incompetence
• unprofessional conduct or violation of boundaries
• criminal arrests (including DUI and DWI)
• sexual misconduct
• lying and falsification of documents
• medical records violations
• expired medical licenses
