Schedule C
Robert Maddox, M.D., P.A., was Robert’s Schedule C laser
surgery practice, which had its office in Juarez, Mexico. The
practice was started in 1990 in order to allow Robert to perform
laser eye surgery using a certain type of machine. This
procedure was not then approved in the United States. (It was
first approved in the United States in October 1995.)
In order to determine whether this type of surgery was
warranted in a specific case, Robert examined patients in his El
Paso office, which was operated by Robert Maddox, M.D., P.A. If
surgery was warranted, then Robert transported the patient across
the border to Juarez to perform the surgery. Robert had one
surgical nurse, named Maria, assisting him with the operations.
Petitioners’ representative did not know Maria’s surname.
While this particular surgical procedure had been approved
in Mexico, the Mexican Government imposed restrictions on the
procedure until December 1991. Robert incurred legal fees
