SPEX COURSE CURRENT ACCURATE AND INFORMATIVE
SPEX COURSE CURRENT ACCURATE
AND INFORMATIVE
Special Purpose
Examination (SPEX) is an exam forced on physicians who have been out of
practice for a defined period of time. This exam is also given to physicians
when their fund of knowledge comes into question. Boards of Medicine provide
minimal direction in the contents of this exam. The Federation of State Medical
Boards, the creator of the SPEX, does not provide much assistance to help
potential examinees pass this test. Therefore, it is up to the physician to
seek help to prepare for this very unfair exam. Many aspects of this exam’s
contents reflect back to our medical school training decades ago. Books on the
market are generally antiquated or do not represent the exam’s true contents.
With the latter stated this was Dr. Davis’ rationale to create a concise course
to help those confronting this exam to have an improved chance of receiving a
passing grade.
Failing the SPEX test two,
three or more times is common. Physicians contact Dr. Davis frequently to help
them raise their level of awareness to this unfair test’s contents. Though the Federation
of State Boards changes this test’s format frequently, its core contents remain
the same. More than 12 medical subjects are represented with questions that
challenge the examinee’s intellect and memory. Certain styles of questions are
presented which an examinee would never expect to see on this exam. This course
covers areas most important to the test taker and provides an extensive overview
of this exam prior to the examinee sitting for it.
Dr. Mark Davis is
intimately familiar with the Special Purpose Examination having mentored
numerous physicians towards a passing grade. Dr. Davis has accrued his
knowledge of the SPEX by interactions with many who have taken this test and
direct inspection of the exam’s contents. Do not go blind into this exam.
The fee is 199 dollars for
this course, which is approximately 2 hours in length. Scheduling can be done by
contacting the email site: platomd@gmail.com
Thank you. Mark Davis, MD

Final Directives The Legal Ethical and Moral Journey to Death
Final Directives: The Legal
Ethical and Moral Journey to Death
Government
has no heart or soul. Its sole purpose is conformity to legislative and
judicial agendas. Step outside of these two realms then the consequences become
toxic and untenable. Final Directives: The Legal Ethical and Moral Journey to
Death, brings the reader into a domain displaying government’s intrusive hand
when a person’s last days are upon him or her. Lacking clear medical
directives, during the most sensitive time in one’s life, overzealous
prosecutors and judges become the final arbiters whether you live or die.
Through a multitude of medical cases this e-book exemplifies why people should
detail whether they want to be kept alive by extraordinary means. One case in
the book explains why a grieving family was forced by a state government to continue
extraordinary therapies though the patient was declared brain dead. This case
eventually was ruled upon in the Supreme Court, surprisingly against the
family.
In another
case a person approaching his hundredth year was kept alive after his brain death
was confirmed. Sadly situations, such as the latter case, could have been
averted. This e-book discusses the most current means available to make a
person’s final wishes known. There are forms, protocols and formats accepted by
each state, if utilized, that gives the patient the ultimate authority over his
or her body. There are many excellent lawyers in each state who will help
families with the legalities of end of life issues. Allow Final Directives: The
Legal Ethical and Moral Journal to Death to illuminate a subject too often
discussed in the shadows of society. This interesting and excellent read is
written by a physician, Mark Davis MD who has counseled hundreds of families
facing the death of a love one. Learn how to avoid the emotionally wrenching
situations written in this book. Thank you for supporting this effort to make
the public aware of this vital issue.
Doctor Mark
Davis writes extensively on health care, science and politics.

CRUCIFIXION OF BRETT KAVANAUGH
CRUCIFIXION OF BRETT KAVANAUGH
By Mark Davis, MD Journalist,
Author, Media Advisor and Science Tutor
One more time in history a
crucifixion of a righteous man is occurring for all the World to see. Brett
Kavanaugh has been set upon by numerous demons, we call Democrats, to side
tract his rightfully earned ascendency to the Supreme Court. In the final hours
of the nominating process an incendiary bomb was thrown into the mix by the
devil’s helpers themselves. Senator Diane Feinstein received notification from
a person claiming to have been sexually abused by Judge Kavanaugh 36 years ago.
Under psycho therapy Dr. Ford recalled painful moments of a sexual assault,
during her high school years, who she believes was caused by Brett Kavanaugh.
Though she claims others in the room that night visualized the assault all of
her so-called witnesses either deny being in such a place or do not recall the
event. Without corroborating evidence Dr. Ford contacted Senator Feinstein who
sat on this information until the very last moment. Why? Because all other
efforts to block Judge Kavanaugh’s nomination failed. Once Feinstein leaked Dr.
Ford’s communication more concocted abuse stories emerged against Judge Kavanaugh.
None of these revelations came with corroborating evidence.
Dr. Christine Ford’s well-rehearsed
testimony before Congress failed the smell test. As further information leaked
out a multitude of nontruths are being attributed to her. These include but are
not limited to claustrophobia which keeps her from flying, not true. Her
friends will not confirm her story, though she stated they would. When asked
who is funding all aspects of her assault on Judge Kavanaugh she noticeably hesitated
providing quasi answers to that question. We now know her lawyers and other
political operatives are providing the funding. Worse she cannot remember
exactly where the potential sexual attack took place nor the day, date, time,
address and who brought her to the location in question. In plain speech the accuser
can remember who attacked her in a vivid manner yet no other facts around it. Either
Dr. Ford is a pawn in this inquisition of Judge Kavanaugh or a willing
participant who has ulterior motives for coming up with her concocted story 36
years after the fact, if indeed the action so describe occurred.
Judge Brett Kavanaugh is
undergoing a present-day crucifixion, by some of the nastiest people in the
Senate. None of these demons could hold up under the scrutiny given him. Our
Great President nominated Judge Kavanaugh after he was reviewed and approved by
numerous legal groups, who gave him sterling ratings. Sadly, the circus
inflicted on Judge Kavanaugh is not over. A seventh FBI review is underway.
Maryland authorities have indicated they would review all materials generated
by the FBI and others if Dr. Ford swears out criminal warrant for actions her
mind perceived happened. This could be the ace the Democrats are holding back
for the last minute. No matter what the outcome a righteous man has been
tarnished for eternity. May God condemn all those who brought this horrible
action against Brett Kavanaugh and bless those who tried to soften its impact
on him and his family.

Maryland's Health Department Corrupt Then and Now Article One Doctor Lois Leonard
Series: Corruption in The
Maryland Board of Physicians
and The Maryland Health
Department
Maryland’s Health
Department Corrupt then and now Article One Doctor Lois Leonard
By Mark Davis, MD
Journalist, Author, Media Consultant
Decades may pass yet
corrupt government entities linger. Unaccountable to no one their appointed
soldiers march through time with the venomous bite of institutionalized
authority destroying the very framework they are supposed to oversee. One such
designee was Doctor Lois Leonard. Her horrific death from cancer in 1993 does
not excuse her of actions in which she was involved several years earlier.
Doctor Leonard was
empowered to cite nursing homes for inadequacies in nursing and physician care
by the Maryland Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (now the Maryland
Health Department). No medical or surgical case was too complex for Doctor
Leonard to critique. Doctor Leonard’s questionable reviews came under scrutiny
when she cited the Poplar Manor Nursing Home.
Mark Davis MD purchased
the Poplar Manor Nursing Home with 12 investors, most of them Doctors, in
August of 1989 after being the facility’s medical director for 8 years. Amongst
the investors were two surgeons who provided the surgical care to the home’s
residents. They were responsible for a range of treatments including decubitus
care. Additionally, the facility enlisted the aid of a neurologist, an
endocrinologist, offsite care with a cardiologist, two podiatrists visited
regularly, a dermatologist and several other medical consultants. Dr. Leonard
believed she was capable of critiquing this collective set of professionals.
Antithetically she turned out to be a CHARLATAN, hired by the Maryland Health Department,
which was more worried with its public image than the people they claimed to
help. Carol Benner, Dr. Leonard’s immediate supervisor, bathed in the glow of
the negative reports her Doctor and staff generated, by releasing these reports
to the media before the nursing home in question received them, in this case
Poplar Manor. Worse Benner’s office was aware Poplar Manor was on a track to
lose its certification as a viable nursing facility, yet withheld this
information from the prospective owners, though requested by their attorneys
prior to sale.
Poplar Manor was under
siege by the Health Department’s division of Long-Term care from the day it
transferred ownership. Documentary evidence has come into the possession of
this journalist displaying clearly Poplar Manor was in the Health Department’s
sights for closure. Perhaps the reason Ms. Benner’s office withheld this
documentary evidence was the prior ownership included Phillip Greene, a former
high ranking official in the Maryland Health Department. Once Mr. Greene
received his money for the facility in August of 1989 Dr. Leonard and her team came
in full force placing the facility on a 90 track to closure. We can only venture
a guess how deep the relationship was between the government officials managing
the nursing home review and Mr. Greene.
Maryland Department of Long-Term
care refused, several times, to provide Dr. Leonard’s resume. In a case filed
with the United States District Court of Maryland, Civil No. MJG-93-1242 Dr.
Leonard provided an affidavit to the court. In that affidavit it was clear why
her credentials were withheld. Dr. Leonard did not have the abilities or
training to survey the physicians she was tasked with reviewing. She did not
have the appropriate skills in Internal Medicine or Surgery even for the most
basic review. In more restrain tones she was a shill for the Maryland Office of
Long-Term care. On her written and or oral word nursing homes, such as Poplar
Manor, were forced to close. In the event a physician filed a complaint regarding
Dr. Leonard’s dubious reports, more shills would follow behind her, as was the
case with Poplar Manor.
Obsessed with closing Poplar
Manor Dr. Leonard fabricated several reports claiming the care in the facility
was horrific. To justify her baseless reviews two more shills were brought in
from University of Maryland to cover her tracks, Drs. Timothy Keay and George
Taler. Neither physician had the intensity of training to perform in depth nursing
home reviews. Their actions will be discussed in article 2 of this series along
with material misrepresentations made by them.
Dr. Lois Leonard’s fraudulent
reports display a person who was not qualified to place a band aid on a
patient. Yet these reports gave the State of Maryland ammunition to close Poplar
Manor Nursing Home after state operatives fleeced its bank accounts, forced the
dismissal of nearly 200 employees, displaced 157 nursing home residents and crushed
the careers of many including this author. Ironically after the state fed false
news reports to the media, in an effort smear its ownership, there were no malpractice
suits filed against the home, it’s staff of physicians or this author. The
question which this author has the answer to is: Who in the State of Maryland
Hierarchy was behind this concerted effort to destroy a viable nursing
facility? Follow this series to receive the startling answer.
