Physician Board Member applicants STILL needed

Due to a recent change in Board composition, there is an additional open seat for a physician Board Member term beginning Nov. 1. The available seat is restricted to candidates who are either 1. osteopathic physicians or 2. on faculty at a North Carolina medical school and using integrative medicine in their clinical practice. Applications are due by 4:45 p.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 2. Learn more and apply online.

The position must be filled by the process set down in statute (N.C. Gen. Stat. 90-2 and 90-3), which requires interested parties to apply via the Review Panel for the North Carolina Medical Board. The Review Panel is an independent body that nominates candidates for consideration by Gov. Josh Stein. By law, the Review Panel must nominate two candidates for each open seat.

In addition to the eligibility criteria stated above, applicants must be physicians (MDs or DOs) who hold active, unrestricted NC medical licenses. Applicants must be actively providing patient care at least part time and must have no history of disciplinary action within the past five years.
