Official Opinions of the Attorney General

OPINION No. 17

REGISTRATION: VETERINARY DOCTORS

In Re: Whether Veterinarians Required to Register Under Chapter 12005; Acts of 1927, Laws of Florida Chapter 12005, Acts of 1927, Laws of Florida, is entitled:

"AN ACT to require the registration of all physicians, sur¬ geons, osteopaths, chiropractors, naturopaths, midwives and all others practicing the medical and/or material healing art in the State of Florida; to provide fees for the same and penalties for violation.” There is nothing in either the title or the body of this Act which can be construed as applying to veterinary doctors or surgeons, and I am therefore of the opinion that veterinarians are not required to register under this act.

OPINION No. 18 REGISTRATION: NON-RESIDENTS

I am of the opinion that Senate Bill No. 75, Chapter 12005, Laws of 1927, contemplates that doctors, whether practicing or not, shall register annually with the State Board of Health. The purpose of this registration seems to be mainly to preserve information as to the whereabouts of the physicians licensed to practice rather than a registration of those physicians actually engaged in practice. The statute says that all those licensed to practice who at the time the statute was enacted were lawfully engaged in the practice of medicine should register annually as required in the Act. If a person applies for a license to practice medicine and engages in some other occupation he would probably be exempt from registration under the Act by notifying the jury to that effect.

Official Opinions of the Attorney General

OPINION No. 17

REGISTRATION: VETERINARY DOCTORS

In Re: Whether Veterinarians Required to Register Under Chapter 12005; Acts of 1927, Laws of Florida

Chapter 12005, Acts of 1927, Laws of Florida, is entitled:

"AN ACT to require the registration of all physicians, sur¬ geons, osteopaths, chiropractors, naturopaths, midwives and all others practicing the medical and/or material healing art in the State of Florida; to provide fees for the same and penalties for violation. ”

There is nothing in either the title or the body of this Act which can be construed as applying to veterinary doctors or surgeons, and I am therefore of the opinion that veterinarians are not required to register under this act.

OPINION No. 18

REGISTRATION: NON-RESIDENTS

I am of the opinion that Senate Bill No. 75, Chapter 12005, Laws of 1927, contemplates that doctors, whether practicing or not, shall register annually with the State Board of Health. The purpose of this registration seems to be mainly to preserve information as to the whereabouts of the physicians licensed to practice rather than a registration of those physicians actually engaged in practice. The statute says that all those licensed to practice who at the time the statute was enacted were lawfully engaged in the practice of medicine should register annually as required in the Act. If a person applies for a license to practice medicine and engages in some other occupation he would probably be exempt from registration under the Act by notifying the jury to that effect.

GENERAL LAWS OF FLORIDA, ACTS OF 1933 failing to pass the requirements shall be entitled within six months to a re¬ examination upon payment of an additional fee of $10.00. But two such re¬ examinations shall exhaust the privilege under the original application.

Every renewal certificate shall be displayed in connection with the original license. All licensees shall be designated as licensed chi¬ ropodists and shall not use any title or abbreviation thereof without the desig¬ nation “Chiropodist, practice limited to foot and leg,” thus indicating a limitation of professional qualifications to treat human ailments.

OFFICIAL OPINIONS Construing these two laws together it would appear that persons engaged in the practice of electro-therapeutics as well as professional masseurs are en¬ gaged in the practice of naturopathy and are, therefore, required to register as such under Chapter 12005, Acts of 1927. OPINION No. 23 REGISTRATION: ELECTRO-THERAPEUTISTS — PROFESSIONAL MASSEURS Answering your letter of February 2nd, requesting my opinion as to the status for registration of electro-therapeutists and professional masseurs, it seems to me clear from the provisions of Chapter 12286, Acts of 1927, that all electro-therapeutists and professional masseurs should have a certificate as such from the State Board of Naturopathic Examiners before they exercise the right to practice their respective professions as such if these two sciences use me¬ chanical, psychological or material health sciences and to aid in purifying, cleansing and normalizing human tissues for the preservation or restoration of health according to the fundamental principles of anatomy, physiology, and applied psychology as it is apparent that they do. Of course, if the Naturopathic Board of Examiners has not issued any license to electro-therapeutists and professional masseurs the provisions of Chapter 12005, Laws of Florida, requiring them to register certificates cannot be applied, as the purpose of Chapter 12005 was to secure the registration of all professional certificates relating to the healing art as a means of checking up on those who are practicing without any certificate as required by law.

OPINION No. 32 REGISTRATION HEALING ARTS —PENALTY Physicians, surgeons, osteopaths, naturopaths, midwives or other persons practicing medical or material healing arts, who fail to comply with the pro¬ visions of Sections 3398 to 3403, Compiled Laws, 1927, relating to registration of all persons practicing the medical or material healing arts is subject to a prosecution for such failure but the failure itself will not prevent the practi¬ tioner from complying with the same and thereby avoiding liability for un¬ lawful practice in the future. I am, therefore, of the opinion that if an individual has failed to register for 1928 although engaged in practice, he is guilty of a violation of the statute, which may subject him to criminal prosecution, but yet at the same time there is nothing in the statute which authorizes the withholding from him of a 1929 registration or in requiring him to register for 1928, before he is authorized to register for 1929. The purpose of the provisions of this Act as has been previously pointed out is to furnish a current record of those presently engaged in the practice for the particular year in question. There is nothing in the Act which prohibits a physician who practiced in 1928 without registration from now filing his registration for the year 1928 in order to have recorded the fact that he did practice during 1928 but such filing subsequent to the time fixed in the statute will not by itself exempt him from liability which he has already incurred from the practice without the proper registration. OPINION No. 33 REGISTRATION HEALING ARTS — COMBINED Answering your request of the 17th inst. for my opinion in the premises, I beg to advise that I am of the opinion that a requirement for registration of those licensed to practice medicine, osteopathy, chiropractics, etc., as found in Senate Bills Nos. 75, 77 and 366, all relate to one and the same registration although the requirement is repeated separately in each of these Acts. Under this construction, it is not necessary that physicians register more than one time with the Bureau although there are two separate statutes which require such registration. 16 Florida State Board of Health

a unanimous affirmative vote shall sustain said charges, it may revoke said certificate of the accused, and in which event the board shall thereupon give written notice in the same manner as provided for the giving of said notice of suspensions, to the said holder of said certificate, which has been so revoked by said board, whereupon the said holder of said certificate which has been so revoked shall have the right within sixty days to appeal to any court of law or equity having jurisdiction, from the action of said board in revoking said certificate, and the said action of the board shall be subject to review and decision of said court, or of any appellate court, if an appeal be taken. In the event the said holder of said certificate, which has been so revoked shall not within sixty days appeal from the decision of the board, in the manner aforesaid, then the action of said board in revoking said certificate shall be final. The action of the board shall be recorded in the same manner as cer¬ tificates are recorded, and the name of the person whose certificate is so re¬ voked shall be stricken from the list of certificate holders, and he or she shall be disqualified from practicing chiropractic in the State of Florida. (Id. §14.)

3449. Issue and reissue of certificates.—Said board may, at any time after the refusal or revocation of a certificate for good and sufficient reason appearing to it, by a unanimous vote, issue certificate to the person affected, conferring upon him or her all the rights and privileges of and pertaining to the practice of chiropractic, as defined and regulated by this Chapter. Any person to whom such certificate has been issued, as provided in this section, shall pay to the secretary-treasurer of said board the sum of twenty-five dollars upon the issuance thereof: Provided, however, that before the said board shall issue a certificate to an applicant to whom certificate has been refused upon the grounds in this Chapter stated, or restored the certificate of any person which may have been revoked, the board shall publish notice in a newspaper of general circulation, once a week for two consecutive weeks, of the application before said board to issue or reissue the certificate of the person to whom a certificate has been refused, or a person whose certificate has been revoked, to the end that opportunity may be afforded to any person to show cause to the board why such application should not be acted upon by said board. (Id. §15.)

3450. Recording of certificate.—Every person who shall receive a certifi¬ cate from the Florida State board of chiropractic examiners shall have it recorded in the office of the clerk of the circuit court of the county in which he resides, and shall likewise have it recorded in the county to which he may subsequently move for the purpose of practicing chiropractic. The failure or refusal on the part of the holder of a certificate to have it recorded before he or she shall begin the practice of chiropractic in this State, after having been notified by the secretary-treasurer of the said board to do so, shall be sufficient ground to warrant the said board to revoke said certificate and render it null and void. (Id. §16.)

3451. Disposition of fees.—lAll examination fees received by the State board of chiropractic examiners under this Chapter shall be securely kept by the secretary-treasurer of said board and remitted to or deposited with the State Treasurer of Florida as hereinafter provided. (Id. §17.) 3452. Annual statement.—The secretary-treasurer of said board shall, within thirty days after the adjournment of their regular meeting of said board in January of each year hereafter render a true and correct sworn statement of account to the Comptroller of this State, showing all funds collected or received by the said board, and he shall at the same time remit to the State Treasurer all moneys received by him. (Id. §18.) 3453. Duties of State Treasurer.—The State Treasurer shall receive and keep the said moneys in a special fund to be designated by him and shall pay the same out on warrants drawn by the Comptroller of the State upon vouchers issued and signed by the president and secretary-treasurer of said

Board; qualifications.—A board is hereby established to be known by the name and style of the State board of medical examiners; said board shall be composed of ten practicing physicians of integrity and ability, who shall be residents of and duly licensed to practice medicine in this State, and who shall have graduated from reputable medical schools and have been engaged in the active practice of their profession within this State for at least a period of five years, but none of them shall be connected in any way with any medical college; said board shall perform such duties and possess and exercise such powers relative to the protection of the public health and the control and regulation of the practice of medicine in the State as shall in this Chapter be prescribed and conferred upon it. (Oh. 8415, Acts 1921, §2.)

3405. Board; how constituted.—The Governor shall within thirty days after June 10, 1921, appoint ten physicians who shall possess the qualifications specified in section 3404 to constitute the members of this board. Five members of this board shall be allopath physicians, three shall be eclectic physicians and two shall be homeopathic physicians.

The successor of each member shall be an appointee in the same manner.

Said members shall be so classified by the Governor that the term of office of two shall expire in one, three in two, two in three and three in four years from the date of appointment. Annually thereafter the Governor shall appoint two members, each of whom shall serve a term of four years, and these appointments shall be made so as to preserve the original ratio of allopath, eclectics and homeopathics respectively. The Governor shall have power to remove from office members of the board for neglect of duty re¬ quired by this Chapter for incompetency or for unprofessional conduct. Any vacancy which may occur in said board in consequence of death, resignation, removal from the State or from other cause shall be filled for the unexpired term by the Governor in the same manner. A majority of the board shall constitute a quorum. (Id. $3.)

3406. Members; oath, of office.—Immediately and before entering upon the duties of said office the members of the board shall take the constitutional oath of office and shall file the same in the office of the Secretary of State; and there shall thereupon issue to him a certificate of his appointment. (Id. §4.)

3407. Organization; meetings.—Immediately after the appointment and qualification of said members, said board shall meet and organize. Said board shall elect a president, vice-president, secretary and treasurer from its membership. The office of secretary and treasurer may be held by one person. All salaries shall be fixed and paid by the board. All expenses of the board shall be paid out of funds collected by the board, and the remainder divided equally among the members of the board. Said board shall hold two regular meetings each year, one in June and one in November at some convenient place in the State and on such date as the board may select, of which meetings notice shall be given by publication thereof once a week for four successive weeks in a newspaper of general circulation throughout the State. Special or call meetings may be held at the discretion of the president. Said board shall adopt a seal, which must be affixed to all licenses issued by it. The board shall from time to time adopt such rules and regulations as it may deem necessary for the performance of its duties, and shall examine and pass upon the qualifications of applicants for the practice of medicine in this State as herein provided. (Ch. 8415, Acts 1921, §5; Ch. 12285, Acts 1927, $1.) 3408. Application for license; admission to examination.—Any person wishing to obtain the right to practice medicine in this State, who has not

OFFICIAL OPINIONS OPINION No. 19 LICENSE RECORDED COUNTY WHERE PRACTICING Section 1 of Senate Bill No. 75, approved May 28th, 1927, provides: “That from and after the passage of this Act every license to practice * * * shall before the licensee begins to practice thereunder be recorded in a book for that purpose in the office of the Clerk of the Circuit Court of the County in which he resides or in which such practice is intended to be carried on. * * *” It is apparent from this provision, taken in connection with other pro¬ visions of the Act, that if a physician has his license recorded in the County in which he resides and intends to practice, it is necessary to have said license recorded in another County whenever he moves from one part of the State to another, or changes his abode from one part of the State to another, as the law requires that the license be recorded in the County “in which such practice is intended to be carried on.”

OPINION No. 21 REGISTRATION: DENTISTS — PODIATRISTS Chapter 12005, Acts of 1927, requires registration of every license to prac¬ tice medicine, osteopathy, chiropracties, naturopathy, midwifery and every other medical and/or material method of the practice of healing art, before the licensee begins to practice. I am of the opinion that the words “every other medical and/or material method of the practice of the healing art,” as used in this Act are words of general import which are limited by the specification of the particular words theretofore used and that the principle of noscitur a sociis or ejus idem generis applies and limits the general words to the same class of things as are covered by the specific words. In short, podiatrists would be required to register as their practice is kindred and similar to the practice of medicine but is limited to a specific portion of the human body. Dentists on the other hand, can hardly be called practitioners of the same kind of science as ordinary doctors, and, therefore, I think that they are ex¬ cluded, unless, of course, the practice of dentistry is held to embrace the right to give treatments for human ailments due to correction of dental deficiencies. As I understand the same, some dentists do this and some dentists do not. It is possible that there might be a distinction between the practice of dentistry and the ordinary practice of medicine. However, if the license of the dentist authorizes, and the practice of his science embraces a certain degree of surgery and therapeutic treatment such as would ordinarily be administered by a physician, a dentist would be as much within the requirement to register as would the podiatrist. As to dentists the question should be determined by a consideration of what the dentist is licensed to do under the rules and regu¬ lations of the Dental Board and the laws of Florida.

OPINION No. 22 REGISTRATION: ELECTRO-THERAPEUTISTS — PROFESSIONAL MASSEURS Section 2 of Chapter 12005 requires all persons engaged in the practice of naturopathy to register with the State Board of Health. Section 1 of Chapter 12286, Acts of 1927, provides for the licensing of naturopaths. The practice of naturopathy is defined as including electro-therapeutics and would also seem to include professional masseurs, which practitioner would fall under the classi¬ fication of those engaged in the practice of material health science used to aid in the purifying, cleansing and normalizing of the human tissues for the preservation of, and restoration of health. 1935

such other methods of treatment or healing as are now regulated by law in the State of Florida. (Id. §13.)

3482. Accredited colleges.—The board of naturopathic examiners are hereby empowered under this Chapter to pass upon the good standing and reputability of any naturopathic school or college, and in determining the reputability of any naturopathic school or college, the right to investigate and make a personal inspection of the same is hereby authorized. (Id. §14.)

3483. Powers of board.—The said board shall have power to administer oaths, to summon witnesses, and to take testimony in all matters relating to its duties. Said board shall issue a license to practice naturopathy to all persons who shall furnish satisfactory evidence of attainments and qualifi¬ cations under the provisions of this Chapter, and the rules and regulations of the board. Such license shall be signed by the president, and attested by the secretary-treasurer of the board under its adopted seal, and it shall give absolute authority to the person to whom it is issued to practice naturopathy in this State. Every unrevoked license and endorsement of recordation made as provided in this Chapter shall be presumptive evidence in all courts and places that the person therein named is legally licensed to practice naturopathy. It shall be the duty of the board to aid the prosecuting attorneys of the State in the enforcement of this Chapter. (Id. §15.)

3484. Refusal to grant licenses; revocations.— The license or registration of a practitioner of naturopathy may be revoked, suspended or annulled, or such practitioner may be reprimanded, upon the following grounds:

(a) That he is guilty of fraud or deceit in the practice of naturopathy, or in his admission to the practice of naturopathy;

(b) That he has been convicted of a felony. The conviction of a felony shall be the conviction of any offense which, if committed within the Sfate of Florida would constitute a felony under the laws of this State;

(c) That he is engaged in the practice of naturopathy under a false or assumed name, or the impersonation of another practitioner of a like or different name;

(d) 'That he is addicted to the habitual use of intoxicating liquors, nar¬ cotics or stimulants to such an extent as to incapacitate him for per¬ formance of his professional duties;

(e) That he is guilty of untrue, fraudulent, misleading or deceptive ad¬ vertising;

(f) Causing the publication or circulation of an advertisement of any modality by means whereby the monthly period of women can be regulated; or the menses, if suppressed, can be established;

(g) The procuring or aiding or abetting in procuring a criminal abortion. (Id. §16.)

3485. Proceedings; revocation.— Proceedings for the revocation of a license or the annulment of registration shall be begun by filing written charges against the accused. These charges may be preferred by any person or the board may, on its own motion, direct the executive officer of said board to prefer said charges. Said charges shall be filed with the Secre¬ tary-treasurer of said board. Upon the filing of said charges as herein provided, the time and place for the hearing of same shall be fixed by said board as soon as convenient, and a copy thereof, together with notice of the time and place when they will be heard and determined, shall be served upon the accused at least ten days before the date actually fixed for said hearing. At said hearing the accused shall have the right to cross-examine 16 Florida State Board of Health

COMPILED GENERAL LAWS OF FLORIDA, 1927

the witnesses against him, and to produce witnesses in his defense, and to appear personally or by counsel. Said board may, upon satisfactory proof made that any licentiate has been guilty of any of the charges against him, suspend such licentiate from the practice of naturopathy, and call in the license of said licentiate upon a majority vote of the board. Provided, however, that such suspended naturopathic physician may have the pro¬ ceedings of said board reviewed by certiorari, in the circuit court of the circuit in which said license is recorded. The accused shall have the right of trial de novo before the circuit court, and thereafter the court shall hear and determine the guilt or innocence of the accused, and unless the guilt of the accused shall appear beyond a reasonable doubt, the court shall render its decision in favor of the accused and restore him to all rights to practice under this Chapter. Said writ shall issue upon the petition of the person whose license has been revoked any time within ninety days after such revocation. Appeals from any decision of the circuit court may be taken to the Supreme Court of Florida in the same manner and subject to like condition as appeals in chancery are taken. In the event that any such license shall be revoked or registration annulled under the provisions of this Chapter, the said board shall forthwith transmit to the clerk of the circuit court in which said accused is registered as a naturopathic physician, a certificate, under its seal, certifying that such registration has been annulled and that such clerk shall, upon receipt of such certificate, file the same and forthwith mark such registration 11 annulled. ’ ’ (Id. §17.)

3486. Practicing without license.— Any person who shall practice natur¬ opathy after his license has been revoked and registration annulled, shall be deemed to have practiced naturopathy without a license; Provided, however, that at any time after six months after the date of said conviction, said board, by a majority vote, may issue a new license, or grant a license to the person affected, restoring to or conferring upon him all the rights and privileges of and pertaining to the practice of naturopathy as defined and regulated by this Chapter; that the fee therefor shall be the same as upon the issuance of the original license. (Id. §18.)

7726. Other offenses against law regulating practice of naturopathy.— Any person who shall:

(a) Sell, or fraudulently obtain or furnish any naturopathic diploma, license, record, or registration, or aid or abet in the same; or

(b) Practice naturopathy under the cover of any diploma, license, record or registration illegally or fraudulently obtained or secured, or issued unlaw¬ fully or upon fraudulent representations; or

(c) Advertise to practice naturopathy under a name other than his own or under an assumed name; or

(d) Falsely impersonate another practitioner of a like or different name; and

Any person who, not being then lawfully licensed and authorized to practice naturopathy in this-State, shall

(a) Practice or advertise to practice naturopathy; (b) Use in connection with his name any designation tending to imply or to designate him as practitioner of naturopathy; and

(c) Any person who shall practice naturopathy during the time his license is suspended or revoked, Shall upon conviction be punished by a fine of not more than one thousand dollars, or imprisonment for not more than five years, or by both such fine and imprisonment, in the discretion of the court. (Id. §19.)

Chapter 12005, Acts of 1927

AN ACT to Require the Registration of All Physicians, Surgeons, Oste¬ opaths, Chiropractics, Naturopaths, Midwives and All Others, Practicing the Medical and/or Material Healing Art in the State of Florida; to provide Fees for the same and Penalties for Violation. BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA:

SECTION 1. That from and after the passage of this Act every license to practice medicine, osteopathy, chiropractic, naturopathy, midwifery and every other medical and/or material method of the practice of the healing art shall before the licensee begins practice thereunder be recorded in a book for that purpose in the office of the Clerk of the Circuit Court of the County in which he resides, or in which such practice is intended to be carried on with the name, residence, place and date of birth of the licensee and the source, number and date of his license to practice. Before registering, each licensee shall file, to be kept in a bound volume, in the office of the Clerk of the Circuit Court an affidavit of the above facts and also that he is the person named in such license and had before receiving the same complied with all the requirements as to examination required by law; that no money was paid for such license except the regular fee paid by all applicants therefor; that no fraud, misrep¬ resentation or mistake in any material regard was employed by anyone or occurred in order that such license should be granted. The Clerk’s fee for recording such license and affidavit shall be the same as for recording a Deed. The Circuit Clerk of each County shall make and report to the Secretary of the State Board of Health on the 31st day of December of each year of all certificates registered by him. SECTION 2. That every person now lawfully engaged in the practice of medicine, osteopathy, chiropractic, naturopathy, midwifery and other medical and/or material systems of healing and every other person hereafter duly licensed to practice the same shall, on or before the 1st day of January of each year, apply to the Secretary of the State Board of Health for a Certi¬ ficate of Registration upon a blank form to be furnished by such Secretary and shall pay at such time a fee of One ($1.00) Dollar. SECTION 3. That every person in making his first registration hereunder, shall write or cause to be written upon the application blank so furnished by the Secretary of the State Board of Health, his full name, postoffice and resi¬ dence address, the date and number of his license and such other facts for the identification of the applicant as a licensed practitioner as may be deemed necessary and shall duly execute and verify the same before an officer au¬ thorized to take acknowledgments of deeds, and shall file the same with the Secretary of the State Board of Health. Registration subsequent to the first registration need not be upon the sworn application unless the Board of Health in particular case, for reasons satisfactory to them, may require that the appli¬ cation be under oath. SECTION 4. That the Secretary of the State Board of Health, on or before October 1st of each year after the first registration shall mail or cause to be mailed to each person so registered a blank form of application for registra¬ tion, addressed to the last known post office address of such Registrant. The form of such application shall be such as to contain space for the insertion by the applicant of the information required by the provisions of this Act. SECTION 5. The Secretary of the State Board of Health shall issue to any duly licensed physician, osteopath, chiropractor, naturopath, midwife and others duly licensed by any State Board to practice the medical and/or ma¬ terial healing art upon his application therefor, in accordance with the pro¬ visions hereof, a Certificate of Registration under the seal of the Board for the year ensuing and ending December 31st.

OFFICIAL OPINIONS OPINION No. 19 LICENSE RECORDED COUNTY WHERE PRACTICING Section 1 of Senate Bill No. 75, approved May 28th, 1927, provides: “That from and after the passage of this Act every license to practice * * * shall before the licensee begins to practice thereunder be recorded in a book for that purpose in the office of the Clerk of the Circuit Court of the County in which he resides or in which such practice is intended to be carried on. * * *” It is apparent from this provision, taken in connection with other pro¬ visions of the Act, that if a physician has his license recorded in the County in which he resides and intends to practice, it is necessary to have said license recorded in another County whenever he moves from one part of the State to another, or changes his abode from one part of the State to another, as the law requires that the license be recorded in the County “in which such practice is intended to be carried on.” OPINION No. 21 REGISTRATION: DENTISTS — PODIATRISTS Chapter 12005, Acts of 1927, requires registration of every license to prac¬ tice medicine, osteopathy, chiropraetics, naturopathy, midwifery and every other medical and/or material method of the practice of healing art, before the licensee begins to practice. I am of the opinion that the words “every other medical and/or material method of the practice of the healing art,” as used in this Act are words of general import which are limited by the specification of the particular words theretofore used and that the principle of noscitur a sociis or ejus idem generis applies and limits the general words to the same class of things as are covered by the specific words. In short, podiatrists would be required to register as their practice is kindred and similar to the practice of medicine but is limited to a specific portion of the human body. Dentists on the other hand, can hardly be called practitioners of the same kind of science as ordinary doctors, and, therefore, I think that they are ex¬ cluded, unless, of course, the practice of dentistry is held to embrace the right to give treatments for human ailments due to correction of dental deficiencies. As I understand the same, some dentists do this and some dentists do not. It is possible that there might be a distinction between the practice of dentistry and the ordinary practice of medicine. However, if the license of the dentist authorizes, and the practice of his science embraces a certain degree of surgery and therapeutic treatment such as would ordinarily be administered by a physician, a dentist would be as much within the requirement to register as would the podiatrist. As to dentists the question should be determined by a consideration of what the dentist is licensed to do under the rules and regu¬ lations of the Dental Board and the laws of Florida. OPINION No. 22 REGISTRATION: ELECTRO-THERAPEUTISTS — PROFESSIONAL MASSEURS Section 2 of Chapter 12005 requires all persons engaged in the practice of naturopathy to register with the State Board of Health. Section 1 of Chapter 12286, Acts of 1927, provides for the licensing of naturopaths. The practice of naturopathy is defined as including electro-therapeutics and would also seem to include professional masseurs, which practitioner would fall under the classi¬ fication of those engaged in the practice of material health science used to aid in the purifying, cleansing and normalizing of the human tissues for the preservation of, and restoration of health. Construing these two laws together it would appear that persons engaged in the practice of electro-therapeutics as well as professional masseurs are en¬ gaged in the practice of naturopathy and are, therefore, required to register as such under Chapter 12005, Acts of 1927.

Chapter 12005, Acts of 1927

AN ACT to Require the Registration of All Physicians, Surgeons, Oste¬ opaths, Chiropraetics, Naturopaths, Midwives and All Others, Practicing the Medical and/or Material Healing Art in the State of Florida; to provide Fees for the same and Penalties for Violation.

BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA:

SECTION 1. That from and after the passage of this Act every license to practice medicine, osteopathy, chiropractic, naturopathy, midwifery and every other medical and/or material method of the practice of the healing art shall before the licensee begins practice thereunder be recorded in a book for that purpose in the office of the Clerk of the Circuit Court of the County in which he resides, or in which such practice is intended to be carried on with the name, residence, place and date of birth of the licensee and the source, number and date of his license to practice.

The Clerk’s fee for recording such license and affidavit shall be the same as for recording a Deed. The Circuit Clerk of each County shall make and report to the Secretary of the State Board of Health on the 31st day of December of each year of all certificates registered by him. SECTION 2. That every person now lawfully engaged in the practice of medicine, osteopathy, chiropractic, naturopathy, midwifery and other medical and/or material systems of healing and every other person hereafter duly licensed to practice the same shall, on or before the 1st day of January of each year, apply to the Secretary of the State Board of Health for a Certi¬ ficate of Registration upon a blank form to be furnished by such Secretary and shall pay at such time a fee of One ($1.00) Dollar. SECTION 3. That every person in making his first registration hereunder, shall write or cause to be written upon the application blank so furnished by the Secretary of the State Board of Health, his full name, postoffiee and resi¬ dence address, the date and number of his license and such other facts for the identification of the applicant as a licensed practitioner as may be deemed necessary and shall duly execute and verify the same before an officer au¬ thorized to take acknowledgments of deeds, and shall file the same with the Secretary of the State Board of Health. Registration subsequent to the first registration need not be upon the sworn application unless the Board of Health in particular case, for reasons satisfactory to them, may require that the appli¬ cation be under oath. SECTION 4. That the Secretary of the State Board of Health, on or before October 1st of each year after the first registration shall mail or cause to be mailed to each person so registered a blank form of application for registra¬ tion, addressed to the last known post office address of such Registrant. The form of such application shall be such as to contain space for the insertion by the applicant of the information required by the provisions of this Act. SECTION 5. The Secretary of the State Board of Health shall issue to any duly licensed physician, osteopath, chiropractor, naturopath, midwife and others duly licensed by any State Board to practice the medical and/or ma¬ terial healing art upon his application therefor, in accordance with the pro¬ visions hereof, a Certificate of Registration under the seal of the Board for the year ensuing and ending December 31st. 14 Florida State Board of Health

OFFICIAL OPINIONS Construing these two laws together it would appear that persons engaged in the practice of electro-therapeutics as well as professional masseurs are en¬ gaged in the practice of naturopathy and are, therefore, required to register as such under Chapter 12005, Acts of 1927. OPINION No. 23 REGISTRATION: ELECTRO-THERAPEUTISTS — PROFESSIONAL MASSEURS Answering your letter of February 2nd, requesting my opinion as to the status for registration of electro-therapeutists and professional masseurs, it seems to me clear from the provisions of Chapter 12286, Acts of 1927, that all electro-therapeutists and professional masseurs should have a certificate as such from the State Board of Naturopathic Examiners before they exercise the right to practice their respective professions as such if these two sciences use me¬ chanical, psychological or material health sciences and to aid in purifying, cleansing and normalizing human tissues for the preservation or restoration of health according to the fundamental principles of anatomy, physiology, and applied psychology as it is apparent that they do. Of course, if the Naturopathic Board of Examiners has not issued any license to electro-therapeutists and professional masseurs the provisions of Chapter 12005, Laws of Florida, requiring them to register certificates cannot be applied, as the purpose of Chapter 12005 was to secure the registration of all professional certificates relating to the healing art as a means of checking up on those who are practicing without any certificate as required by law. OPINION No. 32 REGISTRATION HEALING ARTS —PENALTY Physicians, surgeons, osteopaths, naturopaths, midwives or other persons practicing medical or material healing arts, who fail to comply with the pro¬ visions of Sections 3398 to 3403, Compiled Laws, 1927, relating to registration of all persons practicing the medical or material healing arts is subject to a prosecution for such failure but the failure itself will not prevent the practi¬ tioner from complying with the same and thereby avoiding liability for un¬ lawful practice in the future. I am, therefore, of the opinion that if an individual has failed to register for 1928 although engaged in practice, he is guilty of a violation of the statute, which may subject him to criminal prosecution, but yet at the same time there is nothing in the statute which authorizes the withholding from him of a 1929 registration or in requiring him to register for 1928, before he is authorized to register for 1929. The purpose of the provisions of this Act as has been previously pointed out is to furnish a current record of those presently engaged in the practice for the particular year in question. There is nothing in the Act which prohibits a physician who practiced in 1928 without registration from now filing his registration for the year 1928 in order to have recorded the fact that he did practice during 1928 but such filing subsequent to the time fixed in the statute will not by itself exempt him from liability which he has already incurred from the practice without thef proper registration. OPINION No. 33 REGISTRATION HEALING ARTS — COMBINED Answering your request of the 17th inst. for my opinion in the premises, I beg to advise that I am of the opinion that a requirement for registration of those licensed to practice medicine, osteopathy, chiropractics, etc., as found in Senate Bills Nos. 75, 77 and 366, all relate to one and the same registration although the requirement is repeated separately in each of these Acts. Under this construction, it is not necessary that physicians register more than one time with the Bureau although there are two separate statutes whi^h require such registration. Florida State Board of Health

COMPILED GENERAL LAWS OF FLORIDA, 1927

Osteopathic physicians and surgeons licensed hereunder shall have the same rights as physicians and surgeons of other schools of medicine with respect to the treatment of cases or holding of offices in public institutions.

It is the intent and purpose of this Chapter to grant to osteopathic physicians and surgeons the right to practice as taught and practiced in the standard colleges of osteopathy. (Id. §13.)

3430. Refusal and revocation of license.—The State board of osteopathic medical examiners may either refuse to issue or may suspend or revoke any license for any one or any combination of the following causes:

1. Conviction of a felony, as shown by a certified copy of the record of the court of conviction.

2. The obtaining of, or an attempt to obtain a license, or practice in the profession, or money or any other thing of value, by fraudulent misrepre¬ sentations.

3. Gross malpractice.

4. Continued practice by a person knowingly having an infectious or contagious disease.

5. Advertising by means of knowingly false or deceptive statements.

6. Advertising, practicing or attempting to practice under a name other than one’s own.

7. Habitual drunkenness, or habitual addiction to the use of morphine, cocaine, or other habit-forming drugs.

The State board may neither refuse to issue, nor to renew, nor suspend, nor revoke any license, however, for any of these causes, unless the person accused has been given at least twenty days’ notice in writing of the charge against him and a public hearing by the State Board of osteopathic medical examiners.

The State board of osteopathic medical examiners shall have the power to compel the attendance of witnesses and the production of relevant books and papers for the investigation of matters that may come before them and the presiding officer of said board may administer the requisite oaths and such board shall have the same authority to compel the giving of testimony as is conferred on courts of justice. (Id. §14.)

7706. Violation of law relating to practice of osteopathy.—Each of the following acts constitutes a misdemeanor, punishable upon conviction by a fine of not less than twenty-five dollars nor more than two hundred dollars.

1. The practice of osteopathic medicine or an attempt to practice osteo¬ pathic medicine without license. 2. The obtaining of, or an attempt to obtain a license, or practice in the profession for money or any other thing of value by fraudulent misrepre¬ sentation. 3. The making of any wilfully false oath, or affirmation whenever an oath or affirmation is required by section 3417 et seq. 4. Advertising, practicing or attempting to practice under a name other than one’s own. (Ch. 12287, Acts 1927, §15.) 3431. Records.—The State board of osteopathic medical examiners shall keep a record which shall be open to public inspection at all reasonable times, of its proceedings relating to the issuance, refusal, renewal, suspension and revocation of license to practice osteopathic medicine. This record shall also Florida

Official Opinions of the Attorney General

OPINION No. 17

REGISTRATION: VETERINARY DOCTORS

In Re: Whether Veterinarians Required to Register Under Chapter 12005; Acts of 1927, Laws of Florida

Chapter 12005, Acts of 1927, Laws of Florida, is entitled:

“AN ACT to require the registration of all physicians, sur¬ geons, osteopaths, chiropractors, naturopaths, midwives and all others practicing the medical and/or material healing art in the State of Florida; to provide fees for the same and penalties for violation.”

There is nothing in either the title or the body of this Act which can be construed as applying to veterinary doctors or surgeons, and I am therefore of the opinion that veterinarians are not required to register under this act.

OPINION No. 18 REGISTRATION: NON-RESIDENTS

I am of the opinion that Senate Bill No. 75, Chapter 12005, Laws of 1927, contemplates that doctors, whether practicing or not, shall register annually with the State Board of Health.

The purpose of this registration seems to be mainly to preserve information as to the whereabouts of the physicians licensed to practice rather than a registration of those physicians actually engaged in practice. The statute says that all those licensed to practice who at the time the statute was enacted were lawfully engaged in the practice of medicine should register annually as required in the Act.

If a person applies for a license to practice medicine and engages in some other occupation he would probably be exempt from registration under the Act by notifying the jury to that effect. Bureau of Vital Statistics 13

COMPILED GENERAL LAWS OF FLORIDA, 1927 must be affixed to all licenses issued by it. The board shall, from time to time, adopt such rules and regulations not inconsistent with this Chapter as it may deem necessary for the performance of its duties, and shall examine and pass upon the qualifications of applicants for the practice of naturopathy in this State as herein provided. The officers of the board shall have power to ad¬ minister oaths, summon witnesses and take testimony as to matters pertaining to its duties. A majority of the members of said board shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. The secretary shall keep a record of all official actions and proceedings of the board, and said records shall be prima facie evidence of matters therein contained. (Id. §5.)

3474. Application for license; examination and admission.—It shall be unlawful for any person to practice naturopathy in the State of Florida until he shall first receive a license so to do from the Florida State Board of Naturopathic Examiners, and to this end he shall make application in writ¬ ing to the secretary of the board, at least two weeks before any regular meeting of the board, or any special meeting that may be called for that purpose, in such form as the board may require for such examination and license. The said applicant shall furnish evidence, satisfactory to the board, that he is more than twenty-one years of age; that he is a citizen of the United States, or if foreign born, that he has taken all necessary steps to become a naturalized citizen of the United States, and that he is of good moral character; that he has completed a high school course and taken a three year course, of nine months each, or more (no two of which courses shall be taken in any one year) in a reputable, chartered school or college of natur¬ opathy, wherein the curriculum of study included instruction in the following branches, namely: anatomy, physiology, histology, pathology, hygiene and sanitation, chemistry, diagnosis, symptomatology, non-surgical gynecology, mid-wifery, jurisprudence, first aid, philosophy and the science and practice of naturopathy. All examinations in said enumerated branches shall be in writing, but the applicant shall also be required to give a practical demonstra¬ tion showing his knowledge and efficiency in such branches, as may be deemed necessary and practicable by the board. In the conduct of written examina¬ tions each applicant shall be designated by a number, instead of by his name, so that his identity shall not be disclosed to the members of the board until after the examination papers are graded. A license or certificate shall then be issued under the seal of the board, countersigned by members of the board, and authenticated by its secretary, to each applicant who shall pass said written examinations by a rating of seventy-five per cent on the questions provided in each of the subjects named, and who shall also have satisfied the members of said board by such practical demonstration as may be required of his fitness to practice naturopathy as defined by this Chapter. All applications for ^ex¬ amination and license shall be accompanied by a fee of twenty-five dollars to be paid to the secretary-treasurer, and such fee shall not be returned to the applicant in the event of failure on examination: Provided, however, that said applicant may at the next regular meeting of the board, or at any special meeting of the board called for that purpose, again take the examination without the payment of an additional fee. Said board shall convene within sixty days after its appointment for the purpose of passing on the qualifica¬ tions of the applicants practicing prior to the passage of this Chapter. No license shall be issued to an applicant unless the applicant passes a satisfac¬ tory examination. (Id. §6.)

3475. Temporary license.— The board may in its discretion issue a tem¬ porary license to an applicant, whose qualifications and moral fitness to practice naturopathy may be made to appear to the satisfaction of the board, and said temporary license shall have the same force and effect as a permanent license until the next regular or special meeting of the board for examinations, and only until then, when said license shall become void. A temporary license shall not be recorded. (Id. §7.)

OFFICIAL OPINIONS OPINION No. 23 REGISTRATION: ELECTRO-THERAPEUTISTS — PROFESSIONAL MASSEURS Answering your letter of February 2nd, requesting my opinion as to tbe status for registration of electro-therapeutists and professional masseurs, it seems to me clear from the provisions of Chapter 12286, Acts of 1927, that all electro-therapeutists and professional masseurs should have a certificate as such from the State Board of Naturopathic Examiners before they exercise the right to practice their respective professions as such if these two sciences use me¬ chanical, psychological or material health sciences and to aid in purifying, cleansing and normalizing human tissues for the preservation or restoration of health according to the fundamental principles of anatomy, physiology, and applied psychology as it is apparent that they do.

Of course, if the Naturopathic Board of Examiners has not issued any license to electro-therapeutists and professional masseurs the provisions of Chapter 12005, Laws of Florida, requiring them to register certificates cannot be applied, as the purpose of Chapter 12005 was to secure the registration of all professional certificates relating to the healing art as a means of cheeking up on those who are practicing without any certificate as required by law.

OPINION No. 32 REGISTRATION HEALING ARTS —PENALTY Physicians, surgeons, osteopaths, naturopaths, midwives or other persons practicing medical or material healing arts, who fail to comply with the pro¬ visions of Sections 3398 to 3403, Compiled Laws, 1927, relating to registration of all persons practicing the medical or material healing arts is subject to a prosecution for such failure but the failure itself will not prevent the practi¬ tioner from complying with the same and thereby avoiding liability for un¬ lawful practice in the future. I am, therefore, of the opinion that if an individual has failed to register for 1928 although engaged in practice, he is guilty of a violation of the statute, which may subject him to criminal prosecution, but yet at the same time there is nothing in the statute which authorizes the withholding from him of a 1929 registration or in requiring him to register for 1928, before he is authorized to register for 1929. The purpose of the provisions of this Act as has been previously pointed out is to furnish a current record of those presently engaged in the practice for the particular year in question. There is nothing in the Act which prohibits a physician who practiced in 1928 without registration from now filing his registration for the year 1928 in order to have recorded the fact that he did practice during 1928 but such filing subsequent to the time fixed in the statute will not by itself exempt him from liability which he has already incurred from the practice without the proper registration. OPINION No. 33 REGISTRATION HEALING ARTS — COMBINED Answering your request of the 17th inst. for my opinion in the premises, I beg to advise that I am of the opinion that a requirement for registration of those licensed to practice medicine, osteopathy, chiropraeties, etc., as found in Senate Bills Nos. 75, 77 and 366, all relate to one and the same registration although the requirement is repeated separately in each of these Acts. Under this construction, it is not necessary that physicians register more than one time with the Bureau although there are two separate statutes which require such registration.

COMPILED GENERAL LAWS OF FLORIDA, 1927

3414. Powers of board; prosecution.—The said board shall have power to administer oaths, to summon witnesses and to take testimony in all matters relating to its duties. Said board shall issue license to practice medicine to all persons who shall furnish satisfactory evidence of attainments and qualifica¬ tions under the provisions of this Chapter, and the rules and regulations under the provisions of this Chapter and the rules and regulations of the board. Such license shall be signed by the president and attested by the secretary- treasurer of the board under its adopted seal, and it shall give absolute authority to the person to whom it is issued to practice medicine in this State. Every unrevoked license and indorsement of recordation made as provided in this Chapter shall be presumptive evidence in all courts and places that the person therein named is legally licensed to practice medicine. It shall be the duty of the secretary-treasurer, under the direction of the board, personally or by deputy to aid the prosecuting attorneys of the State in the enforcement of this Chapter and in the prosecution of persons charged with violation of its provisions. (Ch. 8415, Acts 1921, §12.)

3415. Refusal to grant license; revocations.—The license or registration of a practitioner of medicine may be revoked, suspended or annulled, or such practitioner reprimanded upon the following grounds: (a) That the physician is guilty of fraud in the practice of medicine, or fraud or deceit in his admission to the practice of medicine. (b) That a physician has been convicted in a court of competent juris¬ diction of a felony. The conviction of a felony shall be the conviction of any offense which if committed within the State of Florida would constitute a felony under the laws thereof. (c) That a physician is engaged in the practice of medicine under a false or assumed name, or the impersonation of another practitioner of a like or different name. (d) That a physician is addicted to the habitual use of intoxicating liquors, narcotics or stimulants to such an extent as to incapacitate him for the performance of his professional duties. (e) That a physician is guilty of untrue, fraudulent, misleading or deceptive advertising; or advertising that he can cure or treat diseases by any secret method, procedure, treatment or medicine, or that he can cure a manifestly incurable disease. (f) The obtaining of a fee on representation that a manifestly incurable disease can be permanently cured. (g) Causing the publication or circulation of an advertisement of any medicine by means whereby the monthly periods of women can be regulated, or the menses, if suppressed can be established. (h) Causing the publication or circulation of a fraudulent advertisement relative to any disease of the sexual organs. (i) The procuring or aiding or abetting in procuring a criminal abortion.

OPINION No. 17

REGISTRATION: VETERINARY DOCTORS

In Re: Whether Veterinarians Required to Register Under Chapter 12005; Acts of 1927, Laws of Florida Chapter 12005, Acts of 1927, Laws of Florida, is entitled:

“AN ACT to require the registration of all physicians, sur¬ geons, osteopaths, chiropractors, naturopaths, midwives and all others practicing the medical and/or material healing art in the State of Florida; to provide fees for the same and penalties for violation.’’

There is nothing in either the title or the body of this Act which can be construed as applying to veterinary doctors or surgeons, and I am therefore of the opinion that veterinarians are not required to register under this act.

OPINION No. 18

REGISTRATION: NON-RESIDENTS

I am of the opinion that Senate Bill No. 75, Chapter 12005, Laws of 1927, contemplates that doctors, whether practicing or not, shall register annually with the -State Board of Health.

The purpose of this registration seems to be mainly to preserve information as to the whereabouts of the physicians licensed to practice rather than a registration of those physicians actually engaged in practice. The statute says that all those licensed to practice who at the time the statute was enacted were lawfully engaged in the practice of medicine should register annually as required in the Act.

If a person applies for a license to practice medicine and engages in some other occupation he would probably be exempt from registration under the Act by notifying the jury to that effect.

A fee of fifty dollars shall be charged for issuing a license by reciprocity. (Id. §9.)

3444. Methods.—Examination for license to practice chiropractic shall be made by said board according to the method deemed by it to be the most practicable and expeditious to test the applicants’ qualifications. Examination papers shall be designated by number, and not by name of applicant, so that the identity of the applicant will not be disclosed to members of the said board until after the examination papers are graded. (Id. $10.)

3445.

3447. To procure license.—All doctors of chiropractic must first procure a certificate to practice chiropractic from the Florida State board of chiro¬ practic examiners, and present same before State and county tax collector before said tax collector shall issue him or her a state and county license to practice chiropractic in the State of Florida. (Id. §13.)

3448. Record of certificates; suspension; revocation; procedure; reissue of certificate.—All certificates issued by the board shall be in such form as the said board may prescribe. Before any certificate is issued by said board, it shall be numbered and recorded in a book kept for the purpose by the secretary-treasurer, and the number of certificate shall be noted thereon. Such record shall be open to public inspection, and in all actions or proceedings in any court, a transcript, or any part thereof, certified to by the secretary-treasurer under the seal of the said board to be a true copy, shall be entitled to admission in evidence.

The board shall have power at any time to inquire into the identity of any person claiming to hold a certificate to practice chiropractic in the State of Florida, and after due service of a notice in writing, requiring him or her to prove to the satisfaction of said board, that he or she is the person authorized to practice chiropractic under the certificate by virtue of which he or she claims the privilege to practice chiropractic in this State. When the said board finds that a person claiming to be the holder of a certificate to practice chiropractic in said State is not in fact the person to whom the certificate was issued, it shall reduce its findings to writing and file them in its office. Such findings shall be prima facie evidence that the person mentioned therein is falsely impersonating the person to whom a certificate to practice chiropractic in said State was issued of a like or different name.

Charges may be preferred to the board against the holder of certificate to practice chiropractic in said State for fraud or deceit in securing such certificate, or that the holder thereof no longer possesses a good moral character, or that he or she has been convicted of a violation of any law of the State, or that he or she solicits patients through an agent, or that he or she is addicted to the use of narcotic drugs, or in any way or manner is guilty of making false, fraudulent, misleading, extravagant or grossly improbable claims or statements as to the efficacy or value of the science of practice of chiropractic in the cure or treatment of any disease or group of diseases, or in any way is guilty of any deception or fraud in the practice of chiropractic, or has violated any of the provisions of this Chapter. Upon the receipt of such charges, the board upon an affirmative vote of two of its members may suspend the certificate of the person against whom such charges have been preferred. Immediately, but not more than ten days after such suspension, the holder of such certificate so suspended shall be notified thereof in writing, and shall also be furnished with a copy of said charges, and shall also be notified in writing of the time and place for the hearing of said charges by the said board, which notice of the said time and place shall not be more than twenty days from the date of said suspension, further time may be granted by said board for said hearing upon application of the accused. Said notice and copy of said charges may be sent by registered mail, postage prepaid to the last known residence or address of the accused, as shown from the files of the board, which shall be construed as sufficient notice to the accused of the suspension of his or her said certificate, and of the time and place of the hearing by said board of the charges so preferred. The said board is hereby authorized to hold special meetings for the hearing of said charges.

At said hearing the accused shall have the right to cross-examine witnesses against him or her, and produce witnesses in his or her behalf and to appear personally or by counsel. The said board shall keep a record of said hearing, and the testimony so taken and its findings on said charges. If the boafd by 18 Florida State Board of Health

or treatment shall constitute a separate offense. Any advertisement or sign of whatsoever nature to induce the public to believe that one is a chiropractor or practices chiropractic, shall be prima facie evidence of his or her guilt: Provided, the person displaying such sign or causing such advertisement, has not been licensed to practice chiropractic under sections 3435-3462. (Oh. 9330, Acts 1923, §26.)

3460. Non-interference with other method or science of healing.—Nothing in this Chapter shall be construed to apply to or in any manner interfere with any other method or science of healing in this State, the person practicing such other method or science of healing having been theretofore licensed to so practice under any law of this State. (Id. §27.)

Duties of prosecuting attorneys.—It shall be the duty of the several State and county prosecuting attorneys of this State to prosecute all persons charged with the violation of any of the provisions of this Chapter, and it shall be the duty of the secretary-treasurer of the board, under the direction of said board, to assist said prosecuting attorneys by furnishing them evidence of violations of this Chapter whenever they come into possession of same.

(Id. §28.)

3462. Effect of partial invalidity of Chapter.—If for any reason any section, provision, clause or any part of this Chapter shall be held to be unconstitutional and invalid, then that fact shall not affect or destroy the validity or constitutionality of any other section, provision, clause or part of this Chapter, which is not in and of itself unconstitutional or invalid and the remaining portions of this Chapter shall be enforced without regard to the section, provision, clause or part so held to be invalid.

OFFICIAL OPINIONS OPINION No. 19 LICENSE RECORDED COUNTY WHERE PRACTICING

Section 1 of Senate Bill No. 75, approved May 28th, 1927, provides: “That from and after the passage of this Act every license to practice * * * shall before the licensee begins to practice thereunder be recorded in a book for that purpose in the office of the Clerk of the Circuit Court of the County in which he resides or in which such practice is intended to be carried on. * * *”

It is apparent from this provision, taken in connection with other pro¬ visions of the Act, that if a physician has his license recorded in the County in which he resides and intends to practice, it is necessary to have said license recorded in another County whenever he moves from one part of the State to another, or changes his abode from one part of the State to another, as the law requires that the license be recorded in the County “in which such practice is intended to be carried on.”

OPINION No. 21 REGISTRATION: DENTISTS — PODIATRISTS Chapter 12005, Acts of 1927, requires registration of every license to prac¬ tice medicine, osteopathy, chiropractics, naturopathy, midwifery and every other medical and/or material method of the practice of healing art, before the licensee begins to practice. I am of the opinion that the words “every other medical and/or material method of the practice of the healing art,” as used in this Act are words of general import which are limited by the specification of the particular words theretofore used and that the principle of noscitur a sociis or ejus idem generis applies and limits the general words to the same class of things as are covered by the specific words. In short, podiatrists would be required to register as their practice is kindred and similar to the practice of medicine but is limited to a specific portion of the human body. Dentists on the other hand, can hardly be called practitioners of the same kind of science as ordinary doctors, and, therefore, I think that they are ex¬ cluded, unless, of course, the practice of dentistry is held to embrace the right to give treatments for human ailments due to correction of dental deficiencies. As I understand the same, some dentists do this and some dentists do not. It is possible that there might be a distinction between the practice of dentistry and the ordinary practice of medicine. However, if the license of the dentist authorizes, and the practice of his science embraces a certain degree of surgery and therapeutic treatment such as would ordinarily be administered by a physician, a dentist would be as much within the requirement to register as would the podiatrist. As to dentists the question should be determined by a consideration of what the dentist is licensed to do under the rules and regu¬ lations of the Dental Board and the laws of Florida. OPINION No. 22 REGISTRATION: ELECTRO-THERAPEUTISTS — PROFESSIONAL MASSEURS Section 2 of Chapter 12005 requires all persons engaged in the practice of naturopathy to register with the State Board of Health. Section 1 of Chapter 12286, Acts of 1927, provides for the licensing of naturopaths. The practice of naturopathy is defined as including electro-therapeutics and would also seem to include professional masseurs, which practitioner would fall under the classi¬ fication of those engaged in the practice of material health science used to aid in the purifying, cleansing and normalizing of the human tissues for the preservation of, and restoration of health. Bureau of Vital Statistics 11

OFFICIAL OPINIONS Construing these two laws together it would appear that persons engaged in the practice of electro-therapeutics as well as professional masseurs are en¬ gaged in the practice of naturopathy and are,. therefore, required to register as such under Chapter 12005, Acts of 1927.

OPINION No. 23 REGISTRATION: ELECTRO-THERAPEUTISTS — PROFESSIONAL MASSEURS

Answering your letter of February 2nd, requesting my opinion as to the status for registration of electro-therapeutists and professional masseurs, it seems to me clear from the provisions of Chapter 12286, Acts of 1927, that all electro-therapeutists and professional masseurs should have a certificate as such from the State Board of Naturopathic Examiners before they exercise the right to practice their respective professions as such if these two sciences use me¬ chanical, psychological or material health sciences and to aid in purifying, cleansing and normalizing human tissues for the preservation or restoration of health according to the fundamental principles of anatomy, physiology, and applied psychology as it is apparent that they do. Of course, if the Naturopathic Board of Examiners has not issued any license to electro-therapeutists and professional masseurs the provisions of Chapter 12005, Laws of Florida, requiring them to register certificates cannot be applied, as the purpose of Chapter 12005 was to secure the registration of all professional certificates relating to the healing art as a means of checking up on those who are practicing without any certificate as required by law.

OPINION No. 32 REGISTRATION HEALING ARTS —PENALTY

Physicians, surgeons, osteopaths, naturopaths, midwives or other persons practicing medical or material healing arts, who fail to comply with the pro¬ visions of Sections 3398 to 3403, Compiled Laws, 1927, relating to registration of all persons practicing the medical or material healing arts is subject to a prosecution for such failure but the failure itself will not prevent the practi¬ tioner from complying with the same and thereby avoiding liability for un¬ lawful practice in the future. I am, therefore, of the opinion that if an individual has failed to register for 1928 although engaged in practice, he is guilty of a violation of the statute, which may subject him to criminal prosecution, but yet at the same time there is nothing in the statute which authorizes the withholding from him of a 1929 registration or in requiring him to register for 1928, before he is authorized to register for 1929. The purpose of the provisions of this Act as has been previously pointed out is to furnish a current record of those presently engaged in the practice for the particular year in question. There is nothing in the Act which prohibits a physician who practiced in 1928 without registration from now filing his registration for the year 1928 in order to have recorded the fact that he did practice during 1928 but such filing subsequent to the time fixed in the statute will not by itself exempt him from liability which he has already incurred from the practice without the proper registration. OPINION No. 33 REGISTRATION HEALING ARTS — COMBINED

Answering your request of the 17th inst. for my opinion in the premises, I beg to advise that I am of the opinion that a requirement for registration of those licensed to practice medicine, osteopathy, chiropractics, etc., as found in Senate Bills Nos. 75, 77 and 366, all relate to one and the same registration although the requirement is repeated separately in each of these Acts. Under this construction, it is not necessary that physicians register more than one time with the Bureau although there are two separate statutes which require such registration.
