A Melbourne dentist has won a defamation case over several one-star Google Reviews by a former patient, with a Victorian court ordering she pay $170,000 and legal costs after finding her reviews were damaging to the dentist’s reputation.
The Victorian County Court awarded the aggravated damages to Dr. Allison Dean from Melbourne-based Kew Periodontics and Dental Implants, who brought the action against Catherine Puleio.
