Doctor Loses W V Medical License
WEST VIRGINIA....
A Williamson doctor has lost her West Virginia medical license. Dr. Katherine Hoover who operated Mountain Medical Care Center, which was raided in March, says the Williamson clinic provided excellent care, and that she prescribed drugs only to legitimate patients. No charges have been filed in that case. However, a complaint from the 1990s led the state Board of Medicine to revoke the license because the board faults Hoover for missing a May 8th hearing in a case that alleges she asked a teenage female patient to have sex with her son. In a letter received Friday, Hoover urged the board to reconsider, saying she is in the Bahamas and can not travel because of health issues.
