Dr. Lara Kollab, whose anti-Semitic tweets cost her a residency at Cleveland Clinic in 2018, has requested a hearing before the State Medical Board of Ohio through a Columbus lawyer.
“This is a very unfortunate set of circumstances,” said Columbus lawyer James M. McGovern, who confirmed his firm is representing Kollab. “And the doctor is doing everything she can to make things right for the people that she has upset or harmed through her comments.”
McGovern, whose firm Graff & McGovern specializes in representing licensees in front of licensure boards, said he could not specify what actions Kollab is taking.
“Those I can’t discuss with you, but I can assure you that there are steps being taken,” he told the Cleveland Jewish News on Aug. 22.
Tessie Pollock, director of communication for the State Medical Board of Ohio, said Kollab’s request for hearing was filed Aug. 7 by McGovern.
“..make things right for the people that she has upset or harmed through her comments” is an interesting way of saying “make things right for the Jewish people, who she threatened to harm or even kill through deliberate medical malpractice.”
Be that as it may, I can’t wait to hear how she plans to make things right. Perhaps she can volunteer to come to Israel and treat Israeli terror attack victims…for a start.
