TENNESSEE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH
In the Matter of:
Martin Hart
License No. [LICENSE NUMBER, IF KNOWN]
506 North High Street, Columbia, Tennessee, 38401
NPI (public registry): 1275944506
I. INTRODUCTION
Complainant respectfully submits this complaint to the TENNESSEE BOARD OF CHIROPRACTIC EXAMINERS requesting formal investigation and regulatory review concerning Martin Hart (the Respondent), identified in the attached public materials.
The public materials reviewed appear to present representations concerning the identification and management of health conditions, including PANS/PANDAS, Hashimoto's thyroiditis, rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, Mold Illness (CIRS), and Lyme Disease, that may extend beyond the D.C. scope in Tennessee.
Public registry records associate the Respondent's licensure with Oregon, while the practice location described in the public materials is in Tennessee. This complaint is directed to the board for the state where the practice is publicly advertised. The licensing authority in Oregon may also accept a complaint concerning the same conduct.
This complaint is based exclusively upon publicly available materials and does not rely upon confidential patient records, privileged communications, or non-public investigative information. The factual observations herein were assembled from an automated public-record review of the Respondent's public website and public registry records, and were reviewed and adopted by the Complainant. All observations are potential, unverified signals from public records; the Board is the sole finder of fact.
The principal public materials reviewed include https://keystonefunctionalhealth.com/ and the public registry and license verification sources listed in the exhibit index below.
