Dr. Ryan Potter (pain management doctor) and his wife, Ann Potter, filed a SLAPP suit against a former employee after she reported him to the Texas Medical Board for unethical behavior and dangerous prescribing practices. The former employee is a nurse practitioner.
Dr. Potter filed a harassment charge against the nurse practitioner for sending him e-mails that "threatened his license and livelihood." It was dismissed for lack of evidence, but while awaiting the dismissal, she lost her hospital privileges and her job.
The nurse practitioner filed a counter-suit against Dr. Potter and his wife for malicious prosecution, retaliation and defamation of character. The doctor lied throughout the police report and his wife defamed the nurse practitioner on T.V.
The Texas Medical Board has filed a formal complaint against Dr. Potter. Among the many allegations, the doctor is accused of "intimidation of a witness" for filing the SLAPP suit against the nurse practitioner.
