OMG! Way back during high school and the summer after I worked for Dr. Bothra! I used to fill out the insurance paperwork for reimbursement. Back then, around 1982 (yes, I am older than dirt) he was also a Bollywood actor.
Apparently, this is the biggest bust of unlawful prescribing in Michigan’s history.

Yeah- it's hard to understand actually.
Are there 6 doctors dealing OR are were they actually trying to fill a need? Detroit has so many problems for so many years- schools- roads- blight-
violence each and every day- such pain.
You know- trying to help people at their pain clinics.
Like I said- 6 doctors willing to risk never seeing the light of day again in jail for what? That's why I am not judging yet.
Anyhow, time will tell and there will be a lot of people now without their pain medications in Detroit- and the 'D' doesn't need more violent people out there in pain, looking for money for medication...………….Folken

Just to add to my little rant on Detroit- back in October they found dozens of fetuses and newborns in carboard boxes in 2 Detroit funeral homes- now they have found dozens more at 2 cemeteries…..how disgusting is this stuff??
