How Do You Go About Reporting a Doctor?

Question by Izzy: How do you go about reporting a doctor?
Two friends of mine go to a doctor who specializes in addiction. He prescribes suboxone which is a drug you are only to stay on for a few months along with counseling. The problem is my friends have been going to him for years and getting as many prescriptions as they want and not going to counseling. He charges $ 100 every time they go. I feel this doctor is hurting them not helping. Is there a way I can have him investigated?
