You are correct. If a pharmacist becomes suspicious of a Dr. the best course of action is to inform the State Board of Pharmacy and State Medical Board. They can go through his records and find out is something is wrong.
I did retail for one year and hated it. I switched to hospital pharmacy for the next 26 years and loved it.

I agree. No doctor dishing out pain meds like candy is going to go through the effort necessary to formulate fake medical records for the hundreds, or thousands, of people needed to get through a quick audit of his records - not just impractical, likely impossible to do in a way that looks legit.
