Why is the response time to address bad doctors so long? 

When reading the attached news stories, I can't help to feel frustrated. So many of these bad doctors continue to be known for poor practices and nothing happens. How many more lives will be effected by doctors like Dr. Nosheen Hasan and her Center for Pain Management? See below stories to read for yourself and take a look at the similarities in prescribing/over-prescribing history, as well as complaints not taken seriously.
