Like many professionals in a one person practice her employer didn't think strategically. He could have as well told her that his wife viewed her as a potential competitor for his attention and that for the sake of his marriage he would like to help her find a position in another practice. Then he could network with his peers or engage a medical recruiting firm to facilitate her placement, even pay her a bonus when she lands another job. That would have been A LOT CHEAPER than the litigation and notoriety.
