DON HOUSTON, M.D., INC., a Utah corporation; and Don Houston, individually, Plaintiffs and Appellants, v. INTERMOUNTAIN HEALTH CARE, INC., a Utah corporation; Dixie Medical Center, a branch of Intermountain Health Care, Inc.; Gordon Storrs; Ronald Snow; Bruce Williams; John Does 1 through 6, and individuals, Defendants and Appellees.

Court of Appeals of Utah.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Michael H. Wray and Paul G. Amann, Amann & Wray, L.C., Salt Lake City, for Plaintiffs and Appellants.

Charles W. Dahlquist and Merrill F. Nelson, Kirton, McConkie & Poelman, Salt Lake City, for Defendants and Appellees.

Before DAVIS, P.J., and GREENWOOD and JACKSON, JJ.


GREENWOOD, Judge:

Appellant Dr. Don Houston challenges the trial court's summary judgment in favor of appellees. The trial court ruled that appellees are entitled to judgment, as a matter of law, because (1) they are immune, both statutorily and by hospital bylaws, from liability because they acted in good faith, and (2) they substantially complied with hospital bylaws in suspending Dr. Houston's surgical privileges. We affirm.
