State board blamed as prompter cites poor doctor discipline
Austin lawyer William Whitehurst told the Senate Health committee that the Texas State Board of Medical Examiners has failed to remove incompetent or criminal doctors, urging joint efforts with the medical profession amid staff and funding shortages. He cited a federal suit over a Killeen physician and the Wheat case, noting the board failed to act after Nowlin's inquiry. The panel plans 1987 Legislature recommendations.
