WAKEFIELD — The Massachusetts Board of Registration in Medicine took disciplinary action against the medical license of James A. Arcoleo, D.O.

The Board reprimanded Dr. James A. Arcoleo’s medical license after he agreed, in a Consent Order, that he failed to file a mandated report and engaged in conduct that undermines the public confidence in the integrity of the medical profession. The Board also imposed fines totaling $20,000 and required him to complete continuing medical education credits. Dr. Arcoleo is board certified in cardiovascular disease.  He has been licensed in the Commonwealth since February 25, 1998.  He practices in multiple locations including Greenfield, Springfield, and Northampton.

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.
