Texas Doctor Will Only Treat Unvaccinated
Decision after surgical center required vaccine proof and refused hospital privileges for treating COVID patient with ivermectin

Dr. Mary Talley Bowden announced Saturday that she will only accept new patients who are unvaccinated. The ENT doctor in Houston said she is taking a stand for people who can’t find treatment elsewhere.

Bowden, said her policy has resulted in being reported to the Texas Medical Board and negative attacks online by other doctors.  But, she told me in an interview Monday, that she is not backing down.

“I didn’t realize the amount of despair unvaccinated people felt because no one is speaking for them,” Dr. Bowden told me. “No one is voicing what’s going on. Doctors for the most part are just going along because of what you saw happened to me — vicious backlash and trying to take my license away.”

Bowden emailed her current patients Saturday that her decision came after a combination of being told she can no longer operate on unvaccinated patients at a surgery center and having hospital privileges denied for trying to give Ivermectin to a dying COVID patient. She emailed her patients on Saturday: [...]

Bowden said multiple medical events led her to change her practice's policy on new patients. A major factor was being told she needs to provide proof of COVID vaccination to continue operating in a small surgical center.

The final straw was the email I received from one of the surgery centers I operate at. I was informed that in order to continue operating, myself and my patients would need to provide proof of vaccination.  I kindly told them that was not going to work for me, and I would operate elsewhere.
[...]

Dr. Bowden told me she believes in giving COVID patients anything that could help. But that is what led her to being denied privileges at Texas Health Huguley Hospital in Ft. Worth.

Her patient is a Tarrant County Sheriff Deputy and father of six children. He’s dying from COVID and the hospital’s treating physicians refuse to give him Ivermectin. A judge on Friday ruled that Dr. Bowden be granted temporary privileges and allowed to administer medications to her patient. However, in response, the hospital denied her request for privileges. 

“I have a flawless record,” she said by phone. “There’s no reason for that other than keep this poor guy from getting medicine.” Dr. Bowden has never before been denied hospital privileges and has never been sued. She said the patient still has not received the medication on Monday.-- excerpt, rest at link above --

Houston Methodist Suspends Doc for 'Spreading Dangerous' Info

— Mary Talley Bowden, MD, says she will no longer treat vaccinated patients

A Houston-based ear, nose, and throat doctor, who has been a vocal opponent of COVID-19 vaccine mandates, was suspended from practicing at Houston Methodist Hospital.

Mary Talley Bowden, MD, consistently used her Twitter account to promulgate the "efficacy" of ivermectin and the "potential dangers" of the COVID-19 vaccines. It was another tweet, however, that intensified the scrutiny already surrounding her.

"I've had it. Going forward, I will not accept any patients who have been vaccinated," Bowden tweeted on November 5. "I will continue to see established patients how [sic] have had the vaccine, but all new patients have to be unvaccinated."

According to Houston Methodist, Bowden only recently joined the staff and had never admitted a patient to the hospital as of November 12.

Houston Methodist's official Twitter account posted a series of tweets addressing the issue, explaining that Bowden has been "spreading dangerous information which is not based in science." They added that her opinions "are harmful to the community [and] do not reflect reliable medical evidence or the values of Houston Methodist, where we have treated more than 25,000 COVID-19 inpatients, and where all our employees and physicians are vaccinated to protect our patients."-- excerpt, rest at link above --
