@Rik Reynolds, If you really feel this strongly about this man, instead of touting his accomplishments and care here online after the fact, why didn't you defend him with the same level of recomendation at his sentencing hearing?  Really not meaning to be a jab at you at all, just curious if you could've done more to help. I was in the same situation once  with a Navy Corpsman who was practicing as a doctor in Letterman Army Hosp. "Dr." Berger cured my ulcer with antibotics & antacid well before it became a known standard treatment for H. Pylori. Would walk around with armful of thick medical manuals and would consult with them in front of his patients. I just thought him odd and he said he wanted to verify his diagnosis. In hindsight I did notice that the other doctors scrutenizing him VERY closely. I only learned of his no medical license 8 months later in the papers after his sentencing, otherwise I would've helped. Ulcer free now for 30+ years! Still the best "Doc" I've ever had!
