The Arizona Medical Board presents this information as a service to the public. The Board relies upon information provided by licensees to be true and correct, as required by statute. It is an act of unprofessional conduct for a licensee to provide erroneous information to the Board.

Assessing accuracy and reliability of the information obtained from this website is solely the responsibility of the user.

(a) Information up to the date of initial licensure is verified by the Board. Information provided by the physician after this date is not verified by the Board.

(b) The Board does not verify current specialties. For more information please see the American Board of Medical Specialties website at: http://www.abms.org to determine if the physician has earned a specialty certification from this private agency.


(c) Open investigations represent unproven allegations - Upon investigation many complaints are found to be without merit and dismissed.

(d) Advisory Letters and Physician Responses to the Advisory Letters are only available on-line for a 5 year period from date of issuance by the Board.

(e) The settlement of a medical malpractice action may occur for a variety of reasons that do not necessarily reflect negatively on the professional competence or conduct of the doctor. A payment in settlement of a medical malpractice action does not create a presumption that medical malpractice occurred.

(f) Prior to 1999, "Advisory Letters" were known as "Letters of Concern"
