Two heart doctors charge they were fired from administrative leadership positions at DMC for reporting quality problems.
Mahir Elder and Amir Kaki have sued DMC and parent company Tenet Healthcare. Their lawsuit says they reported to DMC problems of dirty instruments, unnecessary procedures by other doctors, lack of nursing staff, and problems resulting from other cutbacks. They were fired from administrative duties and committees. DMC says Elder and Kaki violated the company’s standards of conduct.
