Letter to Dr. Harry Taylor and Shannon Suhr, NP, at Aviva Health regarding worsening cognition and physical coordination of one of their patients that they seem to over-medicate without proper monitoring.
Just reviewed over 400 pages of medical records from Sonoma Family Practice out of Sonoma, CA. The two page “Consent form for Controlled Substane Therapy” is NOT signed by the physician and is NOT dated.
Multiple repeated pages regarding current immunization guidelines and other guidelines for diabetic testing and such, but guess what? NOT A SINGLE DRUG TEST was EVER given to the patient receiving 80 mg of Methadone a day!
Not a single EKG was on file for this patient either!
And everyone wonders why we got into this “opioid crisis” in the first place. Too many providers were giving pain medications out just like any other prescriptions: no tests; no questionnaires to document issues, risks, side effects, and more; no pill counts; no checking the state website to ensure no other prescriptions are being filled, etc. etc.

Dr. Hoyne wastes patient's time "investigating" other doctor's practices by grilling them on how they operate, what they charge, and more. Yet he charges the patient's insurance for his time that has nothing to do with true patient care!
Per a letter I wrote awhile back, I see that the Oregon PDMP is finally reporting the refills properly per my suggestion.
Pulled out some records to check some things and refreshed myself with something I had been meaning to post earlier but got distracted.
I find it amazing that so many clinics, especially pain clinics are ignoring the requirements of having pain agreements and Material Risk Notices with their patients.
