Dr. Wang's Complaints



http://www.scribd.com/doc/30638058/DrWangComplaint

I was so shocked when I read these news.

Dr. Wang, Lishan, who has three little kids and his wife suffered cancer, was accused on Monday of fatally shooting a former colleague Dr. Toor, Valjinder.

Dr. Wang was fired in 2008. After dissmissal from Brooklyn hospital, Dr.Wang was unemployed. And Dr. Toor accept a post doctorate fellowship at the Yale-New Haven Hospital.

Dr.Wang sued Kingsbrook Medical Center on July 2009. In Dr. wang's lawsuit, he claimed that he was fired in 2008 because of his Chinese nationality background and that several doctors who were not Chinese had mistreated him. In the lawsuit, he said he was unfairly labeled excitable, emotional and unable to control his anger. "May 15, by accusing him of igonring pages and call from hospital staff while on duty. Dr.Valjinder told Dr. Wang that he had been looking for him for several hours in the afternoon...Dr. Wang attempted to defend himself again Dr. Valjinder's accusations by explaining that he had been working at the intensive care unit (ICU)..." Another issue is "On march 13, 2008, Dr. Wang was at work and not feeling well. Instead of allowing Dr.Wang to go home sick,they sent him to ER room for an examination... Dr. Toor came into the ER room and told the ER's Doctor to perform extra blood tests and unnecessary X-Ray on Dr. Wang...An hour after this heated discussion, Dr. Vajinder then accused Dr. Wang of threatening his safety by using hostile body language, although he did not summon security to assist him,” Dr. Wang’s lawsuit says, "Dr. Wang was ordered remain in a small room for the rest his shift and his shift ended at 9:00 PM that enening."

Then, Dr. wang complainted about Dr. Toor's interference, and Dr. Toor accused Dr. Wang of threatening him. The incident finally resulted in the dismissal of Dr. wang, only weeks after he filed a complaint with New York Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. The lawsuit was still pending in the court.

Dr. Wang, Nowadays, is public enemy. I have no sympathies for him. But from his 89 points complaints, like several issues he stated, whether racial discrimination, prejudice or some doctors seemed to utilize their power to destroy his life. The board of directors in that hospital should have done something to stopping it years ago. If they had, the tragedy wouldn't be taken place!

  1. A very dramatic story, and something we all need to PAY ATTENTION TO in order to avoid future issues like this. Prejudice takes so many forms, and they all start to add up in someone's life. I agree, I do not feel sympathy for him either, but we need to be very, very mindful of how we treat people. America needs to wake up to its diversity.
