Right to Treat

Physicians are being prevented from providing treatment to their patients by employers, public health agencies, pharmacies, and threats from medical boards leaving us unable in some situations to protect and serve patients facing disease. Many patients are being advised to go home until their disease worsens to the point of hospitalizations. We believe that prevention and early treatment measures are always the best courses of action. We defend the right to prescribe treatment and that physicians should not be restricted from prescribing safe and effective treatments that prevent unnecessary sickness and death. It is both usual and legal for medical providers to prescribe FDA approved medications for off-label prescription.
