- Board of Registration in Medicine
WAKEFIELD — The Massachusetts Board of Registration in Medicine recently took disciplinary action against the medical licenses of Matthew T. Menard, M.D., Eric C. Parlette, M.D. and Thomas Marks, M.D.
In a Consent Order, the Board reprimanded the medical license of Dr. Matthew Menard, upon his acknowledgement that he had been arrested for Operating Under the Influence in Massachusetts in June 2022, as well as in Vermont in 2016. Dr. Menard was also required to enter into a 5-year Probation Agreement which requires a Board-approved monitor, among other requirements. Dr. Menard is board certified in vascular surgery by the American Board of Medical Specialties. He has been licensed in the Commonwealth since May 21, 1997. Dr. Menard is currently affiliated with Faulkner, New England Baptist and Brigham & Women’s Hospitals in Boston.
In another Consent Order, the Board reprimanded Dr. Eric C. Parlette’s medical license, upon his admission that he had been disciplined by the Virginia Board of Medicine for reasons substantially similar to those for which Massachusetts could impose discipline, to wit, by engaging in misconduct in the practice of medicine. Dr. Parlette, who is board certified in dermatology with a subspecialty certification in micrographic dermatologic surgery, was first licensed in the Commonwealth on June 27, 2007. He currently practices medicine in Virginia. He is also licensed to practice medicine in Florida.
Finally, the Board ratified the acceptance of Dr. Thomas Mark’s resignation of his right to renew his medical license. Resignation is a disciplinary action that permanently removes a physician from the practice of medicine. Dr. Marks, a board-certified orthopaedic surgeon, was licensed in Massachusetts from November 6, 1981 until June 25, 2024. He entered into a Voluntary Agreement Not to Practice on February 8, 2023. He last practiced medicine in 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.
