The Florida Board of Medicine is stepping up disciplinary actions against doctors who make mistake with patients. All actions are being taken into account including letters of reprimand, practice limitations, license suspensions and revocations. These infractions can occur when patients are given the wrong medication or surgery is done improperly, among other mistakes. Eighteen more doctors have lost their licenses in Florida this year than last.
