Please contact the Nevada Board of Medical Examiners and tell them that to slanderously accuse this nationally renowned oncologist and medical innovator is unacceptable for an organization obligated to protect the public health.
This coordinated federal and state assault on Dr. Forsythe is not headline material — at least, not until his countersuits for these many serious injuries at law have been won and these public and private organizations have issued their formal apologies.
If you disagree with the Nevada State Board of Medical Examiners regarding their statement that Dr. Forsythe is “one of the top five worst offenders in the State of Nevada,” please let the board know your opinion. They can be reached as follows:
