That whistleblowing surgeon is now reportedly facing persecution by the federal government. Two Health and Human Services agents showed up at this surgeon’s home and investigated him over a case regarding medical records.
The Health and Human Services agents then handed the surgeon a target letter from the Department of Justice letting him know he was a potential target in a criminal investigation.
