How is this really any better than what currently happens? I mean, currently if a doctor's conduct is egregious enough they would most certainly lose their license. Add to this the fact that if a doctor is successfully sued their malpractice insurance cost goes up and the more it happens the more it goes up, and soon enough they won't be able to practice because they can't afford the malpractice insurance.
Also, you're just as likely to punish good doctors with a 3-strikes type of a law.
