Kaiser Permanente’s med school is facing a discrimination lawsuit from a former employee alleging the healthcare giant fostered a toxic workplace. The school lures the best and brightest Black doctors and scientists with false DEI promises, the law firm representing the plaintiff said in an Aug. 30 statement announcing the suit.
The biologist, who previously worked at the Kaiser Permanente J. Bernard Tyson School of Medicine (KPSOM) as an assistant professor, alleged he was traumatized by pervasive hostility against Black professionals and medical students.
