License Losers – Adding (More) Insult to Injury

 
Sometimes licensing bodies – in addition to deciding on disciplinary actions – slip in a little zinger about a person's actions.
• "Licensee [dentist] did not contest the charge of submitting a reregistration application in which she stated that she had completed required continuing education, when, in fact, she had not." (Our italics.)
• "Licensee [dentist] admitted to the charge that he failed to use scientifically accepted infection prevention techniques appropriate to the profession of dentistry." (Our italics.)
• From late 2005: "The member has been suspended since 2003 for nonpayment of fees. He was required to appear before a Panel of the complaints Committee to receive an oral caution. However, he was unable to appear due to work commitments, and the matter was rescheduled. The member did not attend the rescheduled caution. Later that day, the [licensing body] received a fax from the member indicating that bad weather had prevented him from attending. However, evidence provided by the [licensing body] indicated that there was no weather event relevant to travelling to the meeting." (Our italics.)

Honest criticism is hard to take, particularly from a relative, a friend, an acquaintance, or a stranger.

–Franklin P. Jones
