The paintiff clinic maintains that Dr. Lewis signed a contract agreeing not to practice medicine in the county if affiliations with the clinic were dissolved, Claims Agreement Dissolved The plaintiff further cairns that connections between Lewis and the clinic have been dissolved and that Lewis is continuing private practice in breach of contract.
