The founder of a formerly high-flying telehealth startup is suing his former company, saying it ousted him after he objected to a grow-at-all-costs strategy that 'jeopardized patient health'

Tolani founded Virtudent in 2014 as a way to repay some of that generosity, according to the suit and the essay. Recognizing that a large segment of the US population doesn't get regular dental care, Tolani wanted to make it easier for people to get their teeth examined.

Following the financing, Tolani owned 95% of Virtudent's common stock, giving him 42% control over the company, according to the suit. He also had the right to nominate a fourth board member. Those weren't idle concerns, according to the suit. In early January 2019, the president of the New Hampshire Board of Dentistry essentially warned that Virtudent might not be in compliance with the state's regulations, Tolani said in the suit. Meanwhile, due to inadequate training of hygienists, some patients in a Virtudent tooth-whitening program suffered acid burns on their lips, according to the suit.
