If you are a nurse, dentist, or other professional, other than a physician assistant or a physician, you are governed by the Department of Education and its investigative arm, the Office of Professional Discipline. The Office of Professional Discipline must investigate every complaint against a licensee. They may do so by interviewing your friends, coworkers and other patients, or taking a look at whatever documentation they can find throughout the state of New York. It is very important for you to understand how serious it is if you get a letter from OPD. They are investigating you for unprofessional conduct, and you must protect yourself.
