When he foundout that he was doing wrong he voluntarily gave up his license and cooperated withthe Board to the fullest extent.

He is a graduate ofthe University of Toronto, Canada, in 1930,

Dri Combs- What is your citizenship status2A. Naturalized citizen in 1946.

D T continued

Dr, Combs: How long,';have you been going to Rocky Mount seeing patients in con-sultationVSince 1952

Q ~

A,Do you go when they call you for consultation or on regular dsys?In the early' stage on occasional cases, Recently I have had regularvisits, twice monthly for two years

A,

You remember I told you in 1958 permission is given for consultation,The information as to regular clinics is a little bit more than consul-tationi We wanted you to come to see what can be done It is not ourpolicy to give license to a man until he moves to set up practice.Sometime on order practice we give a limited license I do not know whatthe Board will do about your coming from Richmond to Roclgr Mount,From mgr point of view, I have been going because it was a pleasure and therewas no competition and I felt that I was welcome. The financial end is noinducement It is a loss, I only' occasionally collect fees. In anticipatinnof the qu5stion, I asked Dr. Way to write you and Drs Bell and Robertsonand they gave me some letters, I did not realize there was someone in Wilsonuntil Dr. Combs told me I talked to Dr. Baker three or four weeks agoand he rather surprised me, that he is opposed to anybody going to RockyMount as he did not feel it had the capacity to support a man, I personally'feel the time has come to bring doctors into communities instead of all tothe centers.

Dr. Thurstons Do you want to apply for license or discontinue it'PAD I would like to send application in as I was not able to get it ready andif you wish to act, present ngrself againDr. Rasberry! I think this is sufficientA I will have to stop in a year or two I can not continua on,Dr. Bakers If we required you to have a license, would you consider it worth while

for at least a yearVA I think so, a year or two in the hope someone would move in. I do not ala

very mucho

Dr, Rasberry: I know nothing about the situations Do you feel if.you operated to-day you are fully satisfied with the post-operative care since you are inRichmondf

A I turn down the bigger cases I have done one or two big cases. There weretwo or three in the past six months,

Dri Baker: Do y'ou have any patients come from Roclgr Mount to Richmond2A I have had one,

Dr. Combs! After you have seen them in Rocky Mount and may or may not operate,then they go to an orthopaedist in North Carolina, have you had argr kick back.Have they gee without being referred by youV

AD There is one child I have lost track of, who seemed satisfied, one did paybill. One man I suggested he go to the Veterans Administration Hospitals Eedecided not to and was operated in Rocky Mount,

Dr. Rasberryi I suggest that you proceed with application and the same will beconsidered at the October meeting.He was advised to continue as he is doing.

"Dear Dr. Combs'

"Dr. ST G. Wright, Shawboro, North Carolina, has been issuing prescriptions overthe telephone without seeing the patient, telephoning the prescription to the drugstore and asking the drug store to collect his fee of 41.00 for issuing the pre-scription.

"Our Agent F E. Epps, has talked with Dr. Wright and advised him not to do this inthe future, and he, Wright, stated he would abide by the Agent's advice.

"As you may know, Dr. Wright is about 80 years of age and does all his work fromhis home, It is believed if you could write him a letter suggesting that he per"sonally see all of these people who want drugs, examine them, and then if needed,issue to them a prescription, it will be beneficial and perhaps keep Pr, Wrightfrom getting into serious trouble with narcotic and drug prescriptions,

"Your cooperation is greatly appreciated. "

S/ Walter F ~ Anderson, Director"

"Dear Dr. Wright&

"It has been called to the attention of this office that there have been somediscrepancies in handling of narcotic prescriptions, which is in violation of thelaw It is my' understanding that the legal procedure has been explained to youand I trust that this warning will be sufficient so that it will not be necessaryfoe the Board of Medical Examiners to have tosubpoena you to answer to any charges.
