Part 1: 2 years ago a Doctor that was new to the Surgery Center that I worked at ended up committing medical malpractice on me. & even though I reported him to the Florida Department of Health, they dismissed my claim. (I’m thinking because he falsified documentation, because I know that what he documented he had done to me, was different than the actual procedure he performed. I didn’t find out until after talking to my Insurance Company.) It took 5 operations & 7 months for a competent doctor to fix what he had done to me. When I came back to work 7 months later, he was no longer working there thankfully. However, he has been hired back, & for now he is only working 1 Friday a month, but I AM NOT ALLOWED to work on the days that he is there, because he is apparently “not comfortable” working when I am in the same building. Mind you, I had already talked to my manager before he came back & told them I would under no circumstances work WITH him after what he had done to me. So, I am losing out on getting hours, because of what HE DID TO ME!
Part 2: I have worked with a Surgeon for 31/2 years at the same surgery center I discussed in part 1. It has been rumored for at least 2 years that he was having at least 1 affair on his wife with a Nurse that works at the Hospital next door, but I never believed it because he always seemed like just a nice guy. He has always been nice to EVERYONE, & I enjoyed working with him. I have never flirted with him, or thought of him as anything other than a Co-worker. I am happily married & do not find him attractive. However, last week, out of nowhere, my supervisor came to me, along with him, & they both said that “I did nothing wrong, & they were both very sorry, but I could no longer work with him, for his wife’s comfortability” I don’t know his wife, she does not work at my place of work, I don’t know how she knows who I am, let alone that we were working together that morning..
I am just wondering if I should consult a lawyer, as both of these situations are affecting MY COMFORTABILITY & ability to get enough hours at work?
PS Sorry if this is difficult to read/understand as I have more than 41 brain lesions, as I have had MS for the past 15 years. Also, wondering if I should just look into leaving work & getting on disability?
Thank you all for listening!
