The Persecution Of Dr. Mary Bowden
Share this story:
Houston doctor Mary Bowden made some powerful enemies during the COVID-19 pandemic. Can you believe the Texas Medical Board is still wasting tax money trying to punish her?
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!
“It’s been years since we talked. You’re still fighting. Why,” asked Wayne Dolcefino.
“It’s hard to believe. Well, because they won’t stop coming after me,” replied Mary Bowden.
It’s been almost a year after the COVID pandemic as we know it was declared over.
Yet, the Texas Medical Board is still going after one doctor, Dr. Mary Bowden. Looking to punish her for her medical opinion. Her first amendment rights.
“This is weaponizing the medical board to silence me. To silence other doctors,” said Bowden.
The Houston ear nose and throat doctor became a symbol of doctors who dared to question Dr. Fauci or the covid vaccine.
She is among the doctors who believed generic drugs already on the market could be used to save people, drugs like ivermectin.
“I opened the doors and I’ve treated over 6000 covid patients everybody that got early treatment is alive and well,” said Bowden.
Complaints to the medical board can be anonymous and it was in this case, but we now know that it wasn’t patients who complained.
It was hospitals, one of them being Methodist.
“They were the first hospital in the country to mandate the covid shot,” said Bowden.
And they were the hospital that fired desperately needed nurses who refused to take the COVID vaccine. Back then when so many people were dying, speaking out was risky.
“On one single day I tweeted out 25 times vaccine mandates were wrong,” said Bowden.
And that series of social media posts by Dr. Bowden made the bosses at Houston Methodist mad.
Methodist not only suspended her privileges there, they leaked the news to the Houston Chronicle. Got the media all riled up. The story went global.
“Traumatic for me. I mean it’s still an issue that I deal with. It’s affected my business. It’s definitely affected my reputation,” expressed Bowden.
There was another hospital mad at Dr. Bowden too.
“I’m on a mission to save my husband’s life,” said Erin Jones.
Erin Jones sued Texas Health Huguley Hospital because they refused to let her sick husband get ivermectin. A lawyer asked Dr. Bowden to be an expert witness.
“They’re basically making it sound like I marched in the hospital and wrote orders on a chart for ivermectin, which is not the case whatsoever,” said Bowden.
The Tarrant County deputy sheriff got out of the hospital, but he later died.
“I was just trying to fight for a patient and that’s what most doctors should have done, but they didn’t. But I’m getting persecuted for it,” said Bowden.
The Texas Medical Board did give Dr. Bowden a way out, a $5,000 fine, retake an exam, eight hours of community service.
“Slap on the wrist if you just say your right and I’m wrong. She won’t do that because she wants to take a stand on principle,” said Steve Mitby.
The fight with the Texas Medical Board is now in the hands of a Texas administrative law judge. That is the first step when a state agency comes after you.
For those who don’t know, administrative law judges aren’t elected, they are hired. And the first ALJ in this case, well in this case she’s
“We have a judge who is coming in with a partisan agenda and so were concerned about our ability to get a fair trial there,” expressed Mitby.
That judge is Rachelle Robles, who graduated from UC Berkeley.
Her law school, University of California San Francisco.
Both liberal education strongholds.
And Bowden’s lawyer blast at her rulings.
“She’s not letting us bring our expert to testify she allowing the board to bring in a flack who used to work for the Medical Board and is now a purported independent expert,” states Mitby.
A second administrative law judge, Linda Burgess, has now joined the case against Bowden. More taxpayer money. But at least she got her education at Notre Dame and University of Oklahoma.
But why waste any more money tax money on what is clearly a first amendment issue.
A second ALJ was added, but Dr. Bowden is worried she won’t get a fair shake.
“This is about a raw exercise of power by unelected bureaucrats that want to get between you and your doctor. That’s what they want to do. The good news is that we can appeal we can appeal to a district court and ultimately to the Texas Supreme Court and we trust that the teas supreme court will ultimately do the right thing,” said Mitby.
Dr. Bowden has never been sued for medical malpractice, but we cant say the same for some members of the Texas Medical Board.
Stay Tuned. This will get interesting.
