It is further stated by the presenters that these patients "had no medical need to be there", that ********"received Kick Backs from Larkin Hospital for the referrals", and "he received 2+ million from Medicare."

... and, through some clever legal maneuvering, got the case thrown out on a technicality.
Be your own judge as to whether or not you want your permanent medical training record to have this institution listed on your credentials as one of your training sites.
ROSS UNIVERSITY: WHY ON EARTH ARE YOU STILL ASSOCIATED WITH THIS PHYSICIAN AND THIS INSTITUTION?!?!??
