- Board of Registration in Medicine
WAKEFIELD — WAKEFIELD: The Massachusetts Board of Registration in Medicine took disciplinary action against the medical license of Mary Christina Simpson, M.D.
In a Consent Order, the Board admonished the medical license of Dr. Mary Christina Simpson, upon her acknowledgement that she had been disciplined by the Rhode Island Board of Medical Licensure and Discipline for reasons substantially similar to those for which Massachusetts could impose discipline, to wit, for accessing and viewing the electronic medical records of an individual who was not her patient and for maintaining medical records that did not meet the minimum accepted standard. Dr. Simpson has been licensed in the Commonwealth since January 11, 2018. Dr. Simpson currently practices medicine in a private practice in Rhode Island. She is also licensed to practice medicine in California, Connecticut and New Hampshire.
The Massachusetts Board of Registration in Medicine licenses more than 40,000 physicians, osteopaths and acupuncturists. The Board was created in 1894 to protect the public health and safety by setting standards for the practice of medicine and ensuring that doctors who practice in the Commonwealth are appropriately qualified and competent. The Board investigates complaints and determines sanctions. More information is available at www.mass.gov/massmedboard, or you may contact the Board at borimmediamassmail.state.ma.us.
