A doctor's medical license can be validated by checking with the medical board or regulatory agency in the state or country where the doctor practices. This can typically be done through the board's official website, which often provides an online verification tool. Additionally, databases such as the Federation of State Medical Boards (FSMB) can be used to confirm a doctor's credentials and license status. It's also advisable to review any disciplinary actions or complaints associated with the license.
To find out if a doctor has lost their medical license, you can check the website of the medical board or licensing authority in the state where the doctor practices. Most state medical boards maintain an online database where you can search for a physician's license status. Additionally, you can look for any disciplinary actions reported against the doctor. If necessary, you can also contact the medical board directly for assistance.
The type of license needed depends on the type of doctor you want to become. A medical doctor, or general practitioner, usually obtains a license to practice as an osteopathic doctor.

NJ is very stubborn about medical marijuana. If you're a patient, talk to your doctor about becoming a self provider. If you're just a person who wants to grow marijuan, the answer will be no.
Absolutely not. This would constitute medical malpractice and practicing medicine without a license. If the "doctor" who was working under someone else's license performed any procedures (surgery, casting, exams) it would also constitute a medical battery. Doctors are licensed by the state so that patients can trust their doctors. A doctor practicing without a license could, and should, go to prison.
No. In the U.S. the license to practice medicine is granted independently by each state. The degree "Doctor of Medicine" (M.D.) or "Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine" (D.O.) is granted by a college or university with an accredited medical school. Therefore, if a doctor loses his licence, loses his authorization to practice in that particular state, not his title or degree. The same thing would happen if an nurse lost his/her license. They would no longer be a registered nurse, but they would still have their degree (BSN, MSN, etc.)
