Why do you feel that way? The victim was an acclaimed doctor with a broad professional life including:
- Employees at his practice whom he had direct hire / fire authority over.
- Employees at the hospital or medical contractors where a performance complaint by an acclaimed doctor and valued client might lead to a termination decision.
- Former patients and their families whose outcome was negative, despite the skills of doctor H.
- Professional rivalries (unlikely in my opinion). But, did Dr. H ever serve on some kind of review board that made recommendations regarding doctors of dubious competency? What about recommendations regarding residents and their continuance as doctors? Was Doctor H financially involved with other doctors? If so, did Doctor H ever have a dispute over say profit sharing or referrals?
I asked the same question.
