I sure wish there were more Dr. Selfs. Very glad there is one. It is not
as easy as some imagine to sue.
Thanks for the article, Ron.
Best, Terry
As you probably know, I was "downsized" by a large staff model HMO ( 900
docs working for Group Health, now Group Health Permanente ). I had the
lowest C-section rate, did absolutely no unnecessary surgery, and was the
most "cost-effective" provider in the department. They systematically fired
the three male doctors, including me, with the highest salaries, based on
the longest seniority. Then they could afford more young doctors who had
just finished their residencies, and hire them for a much lower salary. I
got a labor relations attorney, and just the threat of a age/gender
discrimination suit got me a very nice severance package ( the amount I am
sworn never to reveal). Ron
99 percent of lawyers give the rest a bad name.
