What specific disciplinary actions has Dr. Steven Gundry faced from medical boards?
Executive summary
Available sources returned by your search do not mention any specific disciplinary actions against Dr. Steven Gundry; state medical board action pages and disciplinary lists are cited but contain no record for him in the provided results [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8]. Public-payment data for Steven R. Gundry exist in Open Payments but do not document discipline [9].
1. What the provided records are — and what they do not show
The search results point primarily to state medical-board public pages that publish disciplinary actions (Maryland Board of Physicians, California Medical Board, Minnesota Board, New Hampshire Board, Tennessee Department of Health, Arizona Medical Board, Vermont Board) and to the federal Open Payments database for a Steven R. Gundry [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9]. None of these specific search-result snippets include a listing or summary of disciplinary sanctions against Dr. Steven Gundry in the material you provided. Available sources do not mention any board orders, suspensions, revocations, fines, probation, or corrective agreements for him [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9].
2. How state boards publish discipline — and why absence in results is not proof of no action
State medical boards routinely post disciplinary orders, alerts, and sanctions on their websites and maintain searchable license-verification tools or action lists (California Board distributes administrative/disciplinary notices; New Hampshire and Minnesota retain disciplinary documents and action lists) [3] [2] [5]. The presence of those general pages in your results indicates where one would look for official actions, but the search snippets provided do not contain a record naming Dr. Steven Gundry. Therefore, the current results do not demonstrate either the existence or absence of discipline; they simply do not show any specific action in the supplied extracts [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8].
3. Other official sources in the results and what they cover
The Open Payments record for “Steven R Gundry” is an official federal dataset documenting industry payments to physicians but is not a disciplinary repository; it reports financial interactions between manufacturers and clinicians rather than board sanctions [9]. Consumer complaint listings (Better Business Bureau) appear among results and capture customer complaints about products or business practices, not medical-board disciplinary findings [10]. Neither type of source substitutes for an official licensing board’s disciplinary order [9] [10].
4. What a thorough public-record check would require
To determine whether Dr. Gundry has faced board discipline, consult the licensing boards in the states where he holds or held medical licenses and use their license-verification or “board actions”/“sanctions” pages directly (California, Maryland, Minnesota, New Hampshire, Arizona, Vermont and Tennessee pages are examples from the results) [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8]. Also search the federal Open Payments database for payments and review complaints on consumer sites for context, but these do not equal disciplinary findings [9] [10].
5. Caveats, competing interpretations and next steps
The absence of a named disciplinary action in the snippets you provided is not a definitive statement that no discipline exists elsewhere or at other times; available sources do not mention any specific actions against Dr. Gundry in these results [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [9] [6] [7] [8]. To reach a conclusive, up-to-date answer, review the full, current disciplinary records and license-verification tools on the state medical boards where he is or was licensed and check for archived actions beyond seven years where applicable [2] [3] [5].
