Doctor Lost His License

[StonedPlanet]

Wow! I feel for the patients!

 

"According to the Medical Board, there are more than 99,000 physicians in California, yet Assad's case is believed to be the first in which a doctor lost his license to practice medicine for carelessly recommending marijuana. In addition, thousands of local patients now have shady recommendations from a discredited doctor and some cannabis dispensaries won't honor them"

The most important part of the story.

 

Public records also indicate that Assad's revocation has more to do with his history of sexual abuse than pot. His drive by style examinations happen everyday. And had it not been for his proclivity for feeling up patients, Assad might still be writing scripts for cannabis in Oakland.
