The FDA is a federal administrative agency born out of the new deal era that was created to enforce the Pure Food and Drug Act of 1906. In essence, the intention of the FDA was to ensure a certain quality of the food, medicine, and cosmetics that citizens use in everyday life. This Act in 1938 did a few additional things:

  • Extended FDA’s oversight to include cosmetics and therapeutic devices.
  • Mandated that new drugs must be shown safe before selling and advertising can begin.
  • Mandated that safe tolerances be set for unavoidable poisonous substances.
  • Authorized factory inspections.
  • Increased the ability of the FDA to prosecute manufacturers at fault.

In 1962, additional amendments to the scope of the FDA’s oversight were added to include:

  • Drug manufacturers being required to prove to FDA the effectiveness of their products before advertising them.

What a keen eye will notice in reading the legislation is that nothing under the FDA’s statutory authority involves the decisions physicians make every day for their patients. In fact, the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, section 1006 expressly state that nothing in this act shall be construed to limit of interfering with the authority of a health care practitioner to prescribe or administer any legally marketed device to a patient for any condition or disease within a legitimate doctor-patient relationship. 

Therefore, it is concerning that; on its face, it appears the FDA did just that over the past 28 months. Amazingly, our state authorities and corporate interest in the delivery of medicine pointed to the FDA limiting the use of medicines physicians could prescribe and pointed to the FDA’s statements and proclamations to justify this interference. These state authorities knew that the FDA had no role in this area and, in fact, is expressly prohibited in their governing legislation. 

As we discuss today on the show, thankfully, a brave number of doctors are suing the FDA for this violation and interference in the sacred physician-patient relationship. The FDA must be constricted to its legislated authority and also removed from impeding the fundamental rights patients have in relationships with their physicians.

  • Dr. Jordan Vaughn and Dr. Stewart Tankersley

    Concerned Doctors is an organization of doctors and healthcare professionals whose greatest desire is to live out their calling by treating the patient in front of them without fear. We are committed to providing information and education, preserving medical freedom for physicians and patients, and protecting the vital doctor-patient relationship. Jordan Vaughn received his BS in Chemical Engineering from the University of Alabama, his medical degree from UAB School of Medicine, and completed his residency in Internal Medicine at UAB Hospital. He is the son of a local physician Dr. Michael Vaughn, who started MedHelp Urgent Care in 1982, the year Jordan was born. After finishing training, Jordan brought his knowledge of internal medicine to further expand MedHelp Clinics to care for patients in all aspects of outpatient medicine; acute and chronic; body and spirit. Medhelp Clinics now has six locations, sees over 140,000 patients a year, and employs 18 physicians and over 200 healthcare workers. Since the appearance of SARS-CoV2, as owner and CEO, Jordan pushed his organization to be on the leading edge of properly delivering early outpatient treatment for his patients and the Birmingham community for COVID-19. Dr. Tankersley is a fourth-generation physician serving the citizens of the Montgomery area. After graduating from Auburn University with a major in History, he enlisted in the Army before medical school at UAB. He then completed two years of OB/GYN training before he and his wife spent a year training as Christian missionaries. After this brief hiatus, he returned to Montgomery and completed a residency in Family Medicine in 2002. Since then, he has enjoyed providing care locally with the exception of three deployments in the United States Army's Medical Corp during the War On Terror. He received awards for each of his deployments. He has recently retired as a Colonel in the Alabama Army National Guard. Dr. Tankersley served nine years on the Montgomery County Medical Society board, where he was honored to serve as President in 2010. In 2012 Governor Robert Bentley appointed Dr. Tankersley to serve a five-year term on the Alabama Ethics Commission. In Oct 20, Dr. Tankersley was appointed by Gov Kay Ivey to be part of the COVID vaccine task force.
