Thank you for the excellent points of clarification. I agree with all that you said.
It appears that (per the Yale website) she was accepting patients while her license was expired.
My memory (which is getting worse the older I get) is that in order to hold the CONTROLLED SUBSTANCE REGISTRATION FOR PRACTITIONER which lapsed 02/28/2017, she must also hold a current medical license, which lapsed 05/31/2015.
I checked the Massachusetts Physician’s Licensing as she was also at Harvard, and no license showed up under her name.
This woman has made it her mission to criticize Trump’s mental status and it is time she gets a taste of her own medicine.
I think your impression is correct. To hold the CT Dept of Consumer Affairs certificate ($40/2yrs) the Doc also must be licensed by the CT Dept of Public Health ($575/yr). Bandy apparently has neither at this point. But she does apparently see patients in NYC (Manhattan and Queens), a short train ride from Yale. One website identifies her NY State license number (as I remember it, $700/2 yrs)....I suspect that she is counting pennies as it does not look like she has a carriage trade practice. Thus she would be avoiding the CT license/practice costs and nominally listed as available to see patients at Yale but probably never establishing a Dr-Pt relationship legally and billing for any services—thus avoiding legal problems

Also, interestingly the Yale SOM website does NOT list her as one of their psychiatrists who is taking new patients — so her connections there may be more on the academic than clinical side...

But I do agree completely with your take on her professional behavior/ethics. IMO, the Goldwater rule applies, and she has tried to justify otherwise with a truly strained rationale. Unfortunately, the NYS DOH under Cuomo will IMO not likely take action against her license.....
