Mattie McClure, of course you will say he is a great physician. You’re probably one of his best patients too. I guess the fact he writes narcotic scripts out unnecessary, and the fact you have been arrested 5 times since 2009 in the Whitley County Detention Center, as July 2015, being the most recent, is just a huge coincidence? Right?
Must have need a lot on this doctor to fill the paper up. Let him get his licenses straightened out and get back to doctoring.
I think this is a very poor way for WPD to get what seems to be lack of attention. Dr. Hudson is a great physician who doesn’t treat every ailments with proscription narcotics. Or maybe that’s the problem. Lord knows we have bigger problems in the city these officers could be focused on.
