Took Bipolar Friend to Free Clinic.Fundie Dr tried faith healing.

I drove a friend that lost his insurance to a free clinic tonight.He is deep in the depressive state.
Crying for hours,not sleeping well,even the simplest tasks seem too much for him.
When the doc came in to see him the first words out of his mouth was "Have you been saved?" My friend and I looked at each other like WTF not catching the meaning at first.Doc then said my friend was depressed because he hasnt the faith to live his life properly.He then told him the footprints in the sand crap.He then prayed over him and left.We were stunned.I went out into the hall to ask about perhaps a ssri or something to help his depression.The doc looked at me like I was satan. He said depression was not a disease but a lack of faith.He then went back in to my friend and asked him to
come to his church so they could hold a prayer circle for him.My friend is unable to even drive at this point due to his GAD (generalized anxiety disorder).The doc said he could pick him up.
It was all so stunningly creepy and sad.I am now at his house with my kids to make sure he makes it through the night.I really want to call the director of the clinic and raise holy hell (pardon the pun) but this is the first time I have taken someone there that the care was not caring,loving and competent.I think this docs whole reason for volunteering there is to get more people for his church.

1. I wonder if this qualifies as malpractice?

Could he lose his license for this?
