The Board of Medicine hereby gives notice that it has received a Petition for Declaratory Statement filed on behalf of Andres F. Rodriquez, M.D., and Stockwell, Reisman, Paulk & Taylor, P.A., and Karl F. Hempel, M.D., and Tallahassee Primary Care Associates, P.A., on November 10, 2008. The Petitioners seeks the Board’s opinion as to whether under the specific circumstances set forth in the Petition, the status of Husband and Wife, as a result of each spouse’s ownership interest in his/her respective group practice, is not imputed to the other physician owners of Primary Care and Digestive Disease and therefore, the other physicians in each group may refer to the other group without violating the prohibitions of Section 456.053, Florida Statutes. The Board will consider this petition at its meeting scheduled for December 6, 2008, in Tampa, Florida.

A copy of the petition may be obtained by writing: Larry G. McPherson, Jr., Executive Director, Board of Medicine, 4052 Bald Cypress Way, Bin #C03, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-3253.
