The victims who complain to the colleges are essentially unacknowledged Whistleblowers who hope to save other vulnerable patients from often deliberate harm or incompetence. The Colleges, instead of providing oversight, put their member interests ahead of those whom they are regulated to protect, patients. Complaints are often ignored or disposed of with confidential oral, written, remedial cautions that are not part of the public record. The lack of information about these cautions is putting vulnerable and often cognitively impaired auto accident victims at risk.
