If the check is payable to Dr. Shmuck, then Dr. Schmuck needs to endorse it. If it's deposited to the Divinity Medical Practice account then it needs to carry that endorsement after Dr. Schmuck's.
If the account is in the name of the practice they should tell their patients to make the check payable to the practice. Yep, the rules apply to them too, unless they can demonstrate that they actually can walk on water.
