Description

BROWN, J. This appeal involves the interpretation of the statute granting immunity from liability to those who in good faith
participate in peer review of health care providers, sec. 146.37, Stats. We affirm the summary judgment dismissing Dr. Uriel
Limjoco's claim against Drs. Jeffrey and Beth Schenck for conspiracy and tortious interference with contract because the Schencks
had the good faith belief that they were participating in a peer review of Limjoco's surgical decisions, and Limjoco established
no facts or inferences to negate the presumption of good faith they enjoyed as participants in that process. Limjoco is a general surgeon who was employed by the Falls Medical Group (the clinic) from October 1969 through July 1989.
In early 1989, there was a decline in the number of surgery referrals to Limjoco from the other doctors at the clinic. In
March or April 1989, Dr. Gary Stewart, who was the quality assurance director and the only other general surgeon at the clinic
besides Limjoco, reviewed the files of twenty-two patients of Limjoco. Stewart also asked Jeffrey Schenck, a gastroenterologist
and Beth Schenck, a dermatologist, to review some of those files and give their opinions as to whether the cases had been
handled appropriately. The Schencks had performed some of the same surgical procedures as Limjoco in their respective specialties.
On May 6, Stewart presented his concerns about Limjoco to the executive committee.
