Whatever the complaint, physicians are afforded the rights of due process as the board investigates a complaint of misconduct.
The tenents of due process state that an individual is innocent until proven guilty and apply to formal hearing/judicial procedures, which the medical board carries out by following established rules and principles, to ensure that a physician is not treated unfairly, arbitrarily or unreasonably. In instances of severely egregious behavior, boards have the authority to summarily suspend a physician's license until an administrative law hearing can be scheduled.
