Labor
Reinstate Dr. Lauren Beene and Dr. Valerie Fouts – Fowler
Please sign the petition below in support of Dr. Lauren Beene and Dr. Valerie Fouts – Fowler, who were abruptly removed from patient care by University Hospitals. Their supposed violation? Using an internal provider directory, a standard tool used daily by physicians, to connect with colleagues to organize around improving patient care at UH. There was no breach of patient data, no harm and no clear violation of patient policy; they are clearly being penalized for speaking up.
Take action to reinstate Dr. Laura Beene and Dr. Valerie Fouts-Fowler!
