John Witcher, a physician and former ER medical director, had his contract terminated in December 2021 when he attempted to use ivermectin for three of his hospitalized COVID-19 patients.

A month earlier, Mary Talley Bowden, an ear, nose, and throat (ENT) doctor, posted on Twitter that she supported ivermectin use for treating COVID-19 and that vaccine mandates were “wrong.” Bowden, who'd recently joined the medical staff at Houston Methodist, was suspended.
