Complaint Sent to Medical Board About Dr. Busman’s Condition
A patient sent a letter to the Sumter County NAACP complaining about Dr. Michael
Busman's behavior in the Phoebe Sumter Hospital emergency room. In November 2011
the patient went to the ER around 5 am complaining of pain in the shoulder. There
was a friend who accompanied this patient. Both the patient and the friend were shocked
to see how disheveled and reddened face Dr. Busman appeared. He looked "high" on
something according to both of
them. When he examined this
patient he was very rough, the patient said. Full Story.................
