Licensing and Role

To confirm (Q1): his California medical license number, with a link to its record on the state license search (search.dca.ca.gov), once it has been checked as current.
To confirm (Q1): the full name of the board that certifies him, and that the certification is current. California advertising rules allow "board-certified" only with the board named in full (for example the American Board of Emergency Medicine). The bio above says "Board-Certified Emergency Medicine Physician" without naming the board.
To confirm (Q3): his role at the practice and how he supervises treatments, in the words you and your counsel choose, and how ownership should be described (the page calls him "Medical Director | Co-Owner").
To confirm (Q1): any other current affiliations he wants listed, such as a hospital or clinic, only if he confirms them and wants them linked.
