Doctor suspended for DWI

A physician who served as the legislature's "Doctor of the Day" has been suspended for driving while impaired.

Dr. Bob Crummie drew attention for handing out a book he wrote, "Grocery Store Medicine and Healthy Life Anecdotes," while serving as legislative doctor in July.

The book claims that maternal rejection causes schizophrenia, homosexuality is a hoax and the lobotomy is not used enough.

On Thursday, the N.C. Medical Board suspended his license for unprofessional conduct. He will not be able to practice medicine for a month, though the suspension could be extended.

Crummie has been charged with driving while impaired three times. (Char-O)
