JAMES B. HURWITZ, M.D. VS. AHS HOSPITAL CORP., ET AL.
A-5112-12T2
Plaintiff, a surgeon, challenged a hospital's review and
investigation of perceived shortcomings in the care he provided
to certain patients. After extensive administrative hearings
within the hospital, in which the surgeon and his attorney
participated, the hospital's Board of Trustees revoked his
clinical privileges. The surgeon contended that the hospital's
actions were arbitrary, unreasonable, and unduly punitive, and
he sought relief in the trial court based on several legal
theories.
