No, you can not become a Dr. with a felony conviction on your record..

AnswerI found this for CA:

"(e) California felony convictions reported to the board on or afterJanuary 1, 1991, including the nature of the conviction, the date ofconviction, the sentence, if known, the court of juristiction, and anappropriate disclaimer, including but not limited to, the accuracy ofthe information provided"[ http://www.medbd.ca.gov/MBC_Regulations.pdf ]Medical Board of California, Title 16, Article 16, 1354.5:Requirements for Information Disclosure

Clearly, physicians may hold or apply for a licence if they have beenpreviously convicted of a felony, however they must describe theconviction in detail. I am somewhat unclear as to what the January1991 date refers to, it seems that either one does not have to reportconvictions before that date, or perhaps before that date a convictiondid actually stop one from becoming a physician. If this is relevant(namely, if your story takes place before 1991), then I can lookfurher into it if necessary. Otherwise, I trust this information willbe sufficient.

AnswerI don't think so. I think it mainly depends on what the felony was.
