Discipline Notes: 

Dr. Woodward failed to adequately treat an infection, which constitutes conduct which was harmful to the health of the patient in violation of A.R.S. § 32-854.01(20), and provides grounds for taking disciplinary action against Dr. Woodward's license to practice podiatry under A.R.S. 32-852(6) and 32-852.01(C). The Board concludes that the conduct described also establishes that Dr. woodward charged a clearly excessive fee, which constitutes conduct in violation of A.R.S. § 32-854.01(23), and provides grounds for taking disciplinary action against Dr. Woodward's license to practice podiatry under A.R.S. §§ 32-852(6) and 32-852.01(C).
