Washington DC Medicine Board

DC BON, the staffers are very professional and personal. They are friendly and genuinely caring.

Very organized and responsive during the licensing process.

The board of nursing works rather slow and quite irresponsible for a company that is in charge of granting licenses for medical professionals. You would think they would be more put together because of this. There is lack of urgency and huge time delay and care when it comes to renewing licenses and other approvals. They extended the expired NP licenses until 8/30 because they were behind and as of today several people I know have yet to receive their license. Last month when they were set to expire, they waited to the day of to send an email on extending them. They did not answer any phones and as of today at 3:30pm they have yet to send any emails, or updates on extending the delay. This is unacceptable when people lives and care are in our head. Because of this, myself any many others are unable to see patients which impacts us financially.

This service experience was DEPLORABLE!
Unfriendly, discourteous, originally told by
HEALTH REGULATION/ licensing registration-
Miss Rawls- re:reinstating of my nursing license (- 40 plus years! BTW ) had been told
All could be accomplished in one visit there
Including CBC. I had all documents in order-!
Then after paying was told had to have CBC
ELSEWHERE.
Bottom line- received NO COPIES OF WHAT I
WAS required to bring.
Got a receipt for $ 230. Dollars- PERIOD!

Am requesting a reply for robotic service.

INCREDIBLY difficult to contact anyone to get needed information if it can't be accessed via the web, and getting my license took MANY months because instead of going through my application as a whole a listing out the various issues, they would take 2 weeks to get back to me on what was wrong. I would fix it, send it back. 4 weeks later I would hear back from them "This minor thing is wrong, please fix such and such" Okay, send it back in. AGAIN "This other thing is wrong, please fix such and such" WOULD HAVE BEEN NICE TO KNOW THE FIRST TIME DON'T YA THINK??!! Prepare yourself for EXTREME incompetence from a typical government agency if you hope to interact with the DC board.
