- Board of Registration in Medicine
WAKEFIELD — At its meeting on November 20, 2025, the Massachusetts Board of Registration in Medicine took disciplinary action against the medical licenses of Elizabeth T. Curtis, M.D. and Christopher Samir Joshi, M.D.
In a Final Decision & Order, the Board revoked Dr. Elizabeth T. Curtis’ medical license after the Board found that she had failed to, among other things, respond to a written communication and a subpoena from the Board and participate in the proceedings at the Division of Administrative Law Appeals. Dr. Curtis, who is board certified in internal medicine with a subspecialty certification in rheumatology, was first licensed to practice medicine in the Commonwealth on August 19, 1987. Dr. Curtis worked in a private practice in North Andover.
The Board accepted Dr. Christopher Samir Joshi’s resignation of his limited license. A limited license is a medical license which limits its holder to practice in a specified training facility. Dr. Joshi was first granted a limited license on April 4, 2024 to practice at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center.
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.
