Philadelphia, PA asked in Employment Law for Delaware

Q: re: Wrongful discharge from medical services of physicians network by president of the network,

Wrongful discharge from medical services of physicians network by president of the network, excluding my disabled 75 year old stepdad and I from getting medical services from physician's in that network; this after we raised issues over the conduct of one of the physicians on that network, one who wrongfully alleged we were abusive to his staff. What are our options in Delaware as far as suing on the basis of wrongful discharge from medical care, and for suing on the basis of misinformation entered or distributed by medical providers about us as patients?

A: Although you asked you question under employment law, this is not an employment issue. Instead, it's a healthcare issue. The fact is that a doctor can refuse to accept a person as a patient. Your best bet is to attempt to repair the relationship with whoever has a problem with you.
