The Board has the responsibility to investigate each complaint that it receives. As a general rule, the Board will forward a copy of the complaint to the doctor and ask the doctor to respond to the allegations contained in the complaint. The doctor should provide a narrative response, as well as attach any patient records that are germane to the allegations in the complaint.
