Email and telephone information for the Center for Peer Review Justice
The Center for Peer Review Justice (CPRJ) has been fighting for the rights of surgeons and physicians since about 2000. We have developed custom strategies to address both the type of accusations as well as the source. In addition to services to individual surgeons and physicians, we are involved in changing the political climate to achieve justice. Over the last 17 years, we have helped numerous physicians retain their profession, regain their dignity, and move on in their professional careers.

The federal law called the Healthcare Quality Improvement Act of 1986 (HCQIA) is a “legal carve-out”. It removes your substantive or factual due process rights (“due process rights”) leaving the procedural due process rights or a “right” to a hearing before your same accusers.  This was passed by Congress and is Federal Law for physicians. In general terms, an attorney cannot grant you rights that Congress has already removed. The Law gives immunity to the hospital, administrators,  MEC, and  physician leaders.

Regarding Courts, the Judge, being a lawyer, will side with the doctors who have Peer Reviewed you.

Thirty (30) days after suspension, the doctor is then “Data Banked” by the National Practitioner Data Bank (NPDB).  An investigation by the State Licensing Board often follows.

We are very proud of the numbers of physician testimonials and endorsements, and heartfelt letters of gratitude. Please see the Testimonials page now. Yes, it’s excessively long but we have earned every one of them.

    Educating Doctors Against Sham Peer Review

    Dr. Richard Willner and Justice Antonin Scalia – may he R.I.P.

    Justice Scalia,  Dr.Richard B. Willner, Archbishop Gregory Michael Aymond

    Frequently the careers of physicians and other medical professionals are threatened by sudden challenges, many of which are motivated by bad faith on the part of hospital administrators and other practitioners.

    If you are being accused of providing substandard care, being a “disruptive physician” or any other claim that calls into question your ability to practice medicine safely, you could be facing consequences including the following:

    • Loss of hospital privileges
    • Loss of your license
    • A listing in the National Practitioner Data Bank
    • Administrative, regulatory or criminal penalties
    • Federal health care programs exclusion

    You need an experienced team with custom strategies to guide you through each stage of the process and stand up for your rights.  The administrative hearings do not follow the same “due process” rule of law that are used in a courtroom.  Are you and your legal team experienced in these frequently closed door meetings?
