Dr. Walter Palmer runs the River Bluff Dental practice in Bloomington, Minnesota.
He was accused in 2009 of sexual harassment by a former employee who was also a patient, according to the Pioneer Press. He settled with the Minnesota Dentistry Board and his insurer paid $127,500 to his accuser.
The woman said “he made unwelcome comments about and physical contact with her breasts, buttocks and genitals,” the Pioneer Press reports. He denied the allegations but said he settled to “conclude the matter quickly and efficiently,” according to the Pioneer Press.
He was also ordered to complete a jurisprudence exam and ethics course.
