Texas Medical Board temporarily suspends license of Dallas Psychiatrist

Via the Dallas Morning News

The Texas Medical Board temporarily suspended the license of a Dallas physician on Tuesday after determining her continued practice could pose a threat to public welfare.

The board panel received an emergency referral on May 6 from the Texas Physician Health Program based on a self report from Dr. Abbie Ewell. Ewell's self-report claimed she was unsafe to practice because of "a recent relapse of a mental or physical condition," the board said.

Ewell's suspension will last until the board takes further action, the board said.

She graduated in 2008 from University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center and was an assistant professor in the school's psychiatry department.
