The Medical Board of California makes a huge production of its "public outreach" quarterly meetings.  They travel to a different California city, stay one or two nights in a high-end hotel, where they rent a conference room, and presumably have meals and other expenses paid by the State.  Usually, about 10 board members and 10 staff members attend these meetings, so they are sending 20 people, and that doesn't come cheap, especially for an organization that constantly whines that it doesn't have enough money to do its job.  

 I just reviewed the YouTube video of the MBC August Quarterly meeting in San Diego, and it appears that some of my comments have been removed from the published video.   I went there in person and was blocked from speaking, and I am still not clear why.  At the time, I was commenting on their regulation of the physician assistant program, specifically the number of PAs a doctor would be allowed to supervise.  I mentioned the medical director of Family Health Centers of San Diego (FHCSD), Dr Christopher Gordon, had been addicted to crystal meth and was released from monitoring for good behavior.  I have no problem with that, but the MBC seems to love this guy, and I wanted to mention that he was one of the ones who (purportedly) agreed with the "approach" of accusing me of being a drug addict.   

I say this because Dr. Joe Sepulveda, a staff psychiatrist there who fraudulently claimed to have been "my psychiatrist", told me that in the 10-minute online meeting that was not consensual  (I told staff there in writing that this was only to discuss continuity of care) .  That makes it highly relevant to me, and highly relevant for the topic being discussed.   I am still reviewing and will update this post when I learn more.  I also need to know how common this is.   I was stopped by their Chief Council Kerrie Webb.  From comments made at that meeting, I understand this is not the first time.  As far as I am concerned, if they are censoring citizens because they don't like what is being said, they have negated the very reason for their existence.
