To our patients and whom else it may concern;

This is official notification that the RN and APRN licenses of Cathy B Poe PMHNP-BC, were revoked on 2/12/2024. Notification to us by the Board of Nursing (BON) was done after the fact.

We will be appealing this decision and taking legal action against the BON. This is especially in regards to the purposeful damage that they did to our patients’ wellbeing. At this time we do not have an exact date when Cathy will be back to providing necessary services to our community again.

We are aware that it is extremely difficult to find a provider in this area to take over the prescribing of your psychiatric medications. If you were receiving a psychiatric injection at our office, it will be even more difficult to find a provider to take that over. Unfortunately we do not have control over whether another provider will take over prescribing any of your medications. There is nothing we can do to ensure you do not have a lapse in psychiatric care. If it will help, please have your health care provider fax a signed request for records to our fax (505) 787-2174 and we will expedite these requests.

The complaint that the license was revoked over was submitted on 11/24/2021 and no patient date of birth, email, phone or address was provided on the complaint.

We have gone over repeatedly how we could have prevented this from happening and there was nothing we could come up with. The BON violated several laws and the rights of a nurse licensed in the state of New Mexico. These laws and rights are in place to protect not only the nurse but most of all the patients. Because those laws and rights were outright ignored there was no way to prevent the damage that the BON has done to our patients and to our provider.

Respectfully,

Poe Psychiatry PC Management
