This study about medical regulation in Missouri details the numerous errors in evaluating the care provided by Dr. Antoine Adem. The state medical board tried to discipline the cardiologist's medical license for allegedly providing negligent and unsafe patient care. Unfortunately, what this article highlights, is that it was not Dr. Adem who failed ot use his skills and knowledge in the duties of the profession, but it was the members of the Missouri Board of Registration for the Healing Arts who failed to demonstrate competent medical knowledge and sufficient skills to properly evaluate the medical care provided by their licensees. If a physician on the medical board is unable to evaluate the care provided by a licensee, then they may pose a danger to the public due to their incompetence and, at the very least, should be second-guessed.

While the Board withheld documents from Dr. Mishler on the expressed basis of its policy of confidentiality, it violated that policy when it forwarded confidential material, including the transcripts of Dr. Mishler's conversations with an investigator, to Dr. Mishler's neurosurgical colleagues.

Finally, even though the Board had the right to obtain the records and Dr. Mishler did not, the Board attempted to shift the burden for the preservation of evidence to Dr. Mishler.

The Board's power was not exercised for the proper and commendable purpose of protecting 297*297 the public from incompetent and negligent physicians.

When we look beyond the label of the discipline given to Dr. Mishler to the true nature of the facts, we conclude that the discipline was unwarranted. The Board's power was not exercised for the proper and commendable purpose of protecting 297*297 the public from incompetent and negligent physicians. Instead, the Board wielded its power to ruin the career of an outspoken physician while simultaneously protecting a possibly negligent or incompetent practitioner who had questionable billing procedures.
