(4) issue a letter of reprimand;
(5) impose limitations or conditions on the professional practice of a licensee;
(6) impose peer review;

(8) impose probation and require the licensee to report regularly to the board upon matters involving the basis for the probation;
(9) accept a voluntary surrender of a license.
(b) The board may withdraw probation status if it finds that the deficiencies that required the sanction have been remedied.
(c) The board may summarily suspend a license before final hearing or during the appeals process if the board finds that the licensee poses a clear and immediate danger to the public health and safety. A person whose license is suspended under this section is entitled to a hearing conducted by the office of administrative hearings ( AS 44.64.010 ) within seven days after the effective date of the order. If, after a hearing, the board upholds the suspension, the licensee may appeal the suspension to a court of competent jurisdiction.
