WAKEFIELDAt its meeting on May 11, 2023, the Massachusetts Board of Registration in Medicine took disciplinary action against the medical license of Darius M. Ameri, M.D.

In a Final Decision & Order, the Board reprimanded Dr. Darius M. Ameri’s medical license after finding that he had been grossly negligent when performing surgery on a patient who died two days later. This finding was based on a jury verdict finding that Dr. Ameri was grossly negligent, which was affirmed by the Massachusetts Appeals Court. Dr. Ameri has been licensed to practice medicine in the Commonwealth since March 23, 1987. He currently practices medicine at Winchester Hospital.

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 borimmedia@massmail.state.ma.us.
