Can she show damages?

The ENT doctor who runs her own private practice and says she has treated over 4,000 patients with COVID-19 will be filing a $25,000,000 defamation lawsuit against Methodist Hospital."

"Tried my best to help the people that needed help and Methodist came out against me in a very public and vicious way. They implied that I was dangerous which as a physician leaves a permanent scar on your record, on your reputation," Bowden said.

Bowden began sharing her opinions on Twitter, including her view that vaccine mandates are wrong, and says Methodist retaliated against her in an unprecedented manner.

The lawsuit refers to a series of tweets from Houston Methodist that say Dr. Bowden's "opinions [about the COVID-19 vaccine and treatments], which are harmful to the community, do not reflect reliable medical evidence."

I hope she bankrupts them.

Hope she gets every penny.

She is an amazing follow on Twitter. I hope she wins.

She is one of the few that knew her **** and had the courage to first inquire and then share her doubts on vaccines as well as Covid-related treatments which were nonsense and in some cases killing people.

25 mil is a drop in the bucket for Methodist.

Here's hoping she's just the start of bringing some of these zealot organizations to the cleaners. Firing for an opinion that has turned out to be factually right ought to be more than enough for damages.

Hospital group tries to toss the case using a govt shield loophole.
That fails.
Hospital tries to settle for pennies on the dollar, using delay tactics to bankrupt her and her attorney.
Then in 2024, the Hospital will settle out our court, admit no wrong doing and seal the case.

Good for her. The medical industry is guilty of gross malpractice when it comes to the China virus. For political reasons they went along with the feds on covid treatment. People died due to the medical industry wanting to make money and the medical boards of the various states as well. A horrible situation.

Interesting turn of events. Recall that Dr. Bowden previously sued Methodist seeking documents, but not damages. She lost that case. Here is link to the new lawsuit:

https://www.houstonpublicmedia.org/articles/news/health-science/2022/07/25/429010/houston-doctor-suspended-for-vaccine-misinformation-files-25-million-defamation-lawsuit-against-methodist-hospital/

She has changed attorneys. Went from a very smart attorney that branched off from a very well known Houston litigation firm to Steven Biss. You can google him if you want more info. (You may get lots of hits for circus clown) This case likely to get dismissed on anti-slapp motion and fees awarded to Methodist.

None of this means that Methodist was right or that Bowden was wrong. Personally, I believe she raised very valid issues and Methodist screwed her over. But that does not make a defamation case.

She and her husband have deep pockets. They aren't running out of legal $$$

Hospitals are about bottom line, not curing you. That flew the coop years ago.
CEOs are woke semi politicians and rockstars, glad handers for charity money, but gouge insurance and paying customers.
She rocked the boat, and admin did not want to investigate , but wanted to toe the government line which of course, the easy, and excusable way.
Very few heroes in medical proffession anymore. Give the approved meds and see if they work.
Meanwhile FDA sits on promising drugs because Big Pharma drug has not achieved profits yet and doesn't want competitor. Retiring FDA folks are always repaid with cush Pharma job.

In my opinion hospital administrators everywhere followed the government for the maximum money on Covid matters ignoring science.

Even worse Doctors followed the administration like sheep.
It is disgusting.

As much as the hospital?
I think not.

From the lawsuit...

Quote:

---

In March 2020, Dr. Bowden stepped up and agreed to help patients whose primary care doctors would not see them due to COVID. After doing extensive research and collaborating with other physicians, Dr. Bowden began using Ivermectin as part of a multimodality treatment protocol. She successfully kept over 4,000 patients out of the hospital with no dangerous side effects. In July 2021, she noticed a troubling trend: most of her COVID patients were fully vaccinated and yet experiencing symptoms. She reached out to an otolaryngology contact at Methodist, with whom she was collaborating on research papers based on her patient population, to see if the hospital was experiencing the same troubling trend. This physician at Methodist advised that a majority of the patients at the hospital were "unvaccinated". Dr. Bowden's contact further stated, "I guess the goal of the vaccines is to prevent against severe disease."

As time went on, Dr. Bowden became increasingly worried about serious side effects from vaccines that her patients were experiencing. Dr. Bowden developed concerns that the vaccines posed significant risks. She felt the government wasn't being candid about those risks. When vaccine mandates started, she had numerous patients come to her extremely distraught because they were going to lose their jobs if they did not involuntarily submit to the vaccines. Dr. Bowden empathized with these patients and began to speak out against vaccine mandates. She became an opponent of vaccine mandates, and over time, the vaccines themselves. Dr. Bowden began sharing her opinions on Twitter, including her view that vaccine mandates are "wrong".

No standing. She was successful after the defamation. No effects of damage.

Dismissed and on the hook for attorney fees.

HOUSTON - A lawsuit filed by a Houston doctor, who was in the spotlight after being suspended by Houston Methodist Hospital for spreading information related to COVID-19, had her case dismissed by a judge.

According to a release from Houston Methodist Hospital,

"Dr. Mary Bowden had her day in courtand today Judge Mike Engelhart dismissed her defamation case against Houston Methodist and ordered her to pay attorney fees."

Quote:

Dr. Mark Boom, president and CEO of Houston Methodist, said:

"We can now put this behind us and continue our focus on our patients, employees and community. As health care workers, we have a sacred oath to 'do no harm,' and part of that oath means doing everything possible to prevent the spread of misinformation that is harmful to our community."

Methodist doubling down...

If anyone can find a link to judge's decision, much appreciated.

My guess is she couldn't show any damages.

It seems the only way to confront left wing activist lawfare is to confront them with lawfare as well.

Hearing on Monday, and dismissed on Tuesday. That's pretty speedy. She'll likely be on the hook for appellate fees too if she loses there.

Having to pay for your own attorney, plus the prevailing side's fees is certainly a strategy.

At this point of case, that's not a reason to dismiss.
