TMB Should Remove False and Misleading NPDB Reports, AAPS Tells Court

On June 9, 2019 AAPS filed an Amicus Letter with the Texas Court of Appeals in support of Dr. Robert Van Boven’s lawsuit seeking to compel the Texas Medical Board to remove false and misleading reports it made to the National Practitioner Data Bank.

The letter reads in part:

The Texas Medical Board (TMB) refuses to withdraw or void its false and misleading report to the Data Bank about Robert Van Boven, M.D., despite his complete exoneration by the legal process. Instead, the TMB insists on compounding its error by adding another report to the Data Bank, as though Dr. Van Boven had committed wrongdoing a second time when he never engaged in any relevant wrongdoing
