The story of the "pot doctor" has been hitting many of the major news outlets, especially in California.
According to the San Francisco Examiner:
In a state where doctors are allowed to suggest marijuana for medical purposes, a medical panel is trying to suspend or revoke the license of a physician who has written 7,500 marijuana recommendations for his patients. Dr. Tod H. Mikuriya, 69, is accused of writing those recommendations without conducting sufficient medical exams and of improperly maintaining medical record. [...]
Well 7.500 prescriptions would sound suspicious to me. Almost like a "wink with a nod" setup. Of course, many communities in Northern cailfornia are said to be heavily invested in the regions marijuana crops, so this would be indicative of the larger drug scene.
