I don't think it works this way, sir. You might realize that once you're an attending.
This should be a good warning for any DPM, particularly younger ones.
The damage has been done... reviews, screenshots, ill will. The twitter and FB roasts can't even be counted.
He has 100% scrubbed his social media... and should obtain attorney advice on this.
The problem is: his employer and his hospitals all did the same. They want nothing to do with this either.
His employer that fired him took much heat, lost money, and will assure their staff references "keeps showing his employers this time and time again."
Job gaps or taking any job you can get on a whim is damaging for a podiatrist,
particularly early career. Source = common sense, and trust me brah. Podiatry always has fairly limited job options regardless, and he will have VERY limited options now. He'd be wise to go by his middle name and change appearance at least a bit for future jobs, web presence, etc.
He may never recover. Sad but true. The guy has worked at that Upperline venture capital group job for years. They got tons of angry reviews and surely got hundreds of press and angry phone calls, patients leaving on account of this.... and fired him accordingly. He can't just omit that job or his Pensacola hospitals (probably his only job since residency, not board cert yet). He will need to list those for future applications (jobs, privileges, licenses) for the foreseeable future.
Nooo prospective employer wants that attention if even a few people in the new town put 2+2 together. An assassination attempt and guy who might win president again won't be "old news" anytime soon.
It's very likely only the real predatory and underpaid associate jobs or maybe house call jobs will take the risk on him now. Why would any hospital or MSG or any good podiatry job which gets many applications risk the baggage? This will cripple his earnings and job options for quite awhile. You'd honestly much rather have early-career malpractice or pharmacy board discipline or sexual harassment suit; those things are lame - but they're compartmentalized. What he did went totally widespread and is very damaging stuff...
