Dr. Obisesan is a premier Geriatrician in the Washington DC metropolitan area, and an accomplished clinical translational scientist. The person whose comment appeared below has never received medical care from the Department of medicine at Howard University, never met Dr. Obisesan or received medical care from him. Importantly, Dr. Obisesan was not the AVP for Research Compliance in 2009 or 2013 when the referenced OHRP visit to Howard University occurred. As the newly appointed AVP for Research Compliance after the OHRP site visit, Dr. Obisesan had the privilege of satisfactorily addressing the immediate and previous OHRP observations. Therefore, the rating below is complete falsehood. Motivation??????.

Dr. Thomas Obisesan MD, is basically whether this author of review uses acrolect, basilect, or mesolect, a terrible representative of the human medical sciences for this review. He has a position currently at Howard University which undermines legislative changes made as a result of the infamous 40-Year Tuskegee Experiment; this not only hurts the qualitative research which Howard's scientific history has achieved for the last 150 years, but it is with ideas of litigious normalcy for matters of research compliance, the comorbidity of seriocomic [academic and non-academic] and tireless Federal criticism for systemic failures which scar the face of public policy. It appears he censored and lied about data concerning compliance for medical testing on research concerning children, specifically for HIV and Sickle Cell Anemia. Children of the African American community for Washington, D.C., should not have to undergo any compliance violations against them by a Historic Black College, with rights and changes made since the end of testing marginalization against African Americans for experiments such as Tuskegee's.

Dr. Obisesan claims to be an American citizen of African American personhood, yet he cryptically censors and plagiarizes the rights of African American test subjects who seek help and treatment but because of compliance scandals, don't receive help or treatment with the compliance of a rational basis of Federal Law with teeth for any rational basis of law review. Dr. Obisesan has not only broken the social contracts of the African American for both normalcy and modernity of the medical sciences but it appears he is allergic to Federal Law concerning the matter as well. This isn't a one time slip on Obisesan's part but almost a decade of failure after failure recorded, as if it was a negative and unthinkable ethnography for the medical sciences concerning minority subjects. Dr. Obisesan is a published disgrace.

Please read the letter addressed to Thomas Obisesan, if it suits your interest to be his patient, maybe the following letter by the Federal Government will change your mind:
