Sagun Tuli v. Brigham & Women's Hospital

Thank you for sharing!

Before Lynch, Chief Judge, Boudin and Lipez, Circuit Judges.

Now before us are four appeals in a case brought by Dr. Sagun Tuli, a female neurosurgeon, against her employer Brigham and Women’s Hospital (“the Hospital”) and her former co-worker and supervisor Dr. Arthur Day. The first appeal was by the Hospital from a preliminary injunction sought and obtained by Tuli; the three more recent appeals followed a jury verdict awarding Tuli damages against the defendants and a permanent injunction crafted by the district judge.

In 2002, the Hospital hired Tuli as an associate surgeon in the Department of Neurosurgery and Day as residency director and vice chairman of the department. In 2002 and 2003, Tuli was made the department’s professionalism officer and representative to the Hospital’s Quality Assurance and Risk Management Committee (“QARM”), which required her to investigate and in some cases report on other doctors’ case complications. In 2004, the departure of two colleagues left Tuli as the sole spine surgeon; she says that, unlike prior male doctors, she was not promoted to the position of Director of Spine.
