More like he wouldn't have a valid legal claim upon which a court could grant relief.
Certainly not for defamation, emotional distress, invasion of privacy, or public disclosure of private facts. They're apparently true statements made in part in pursuit of a legal proceeding about facts that were not kept private (their co-workers apparently knew) and the Dr. even admitted to their truthfulness under oath.
A 12(b)(6) motion would almost definitely easily kill any suit based on some claim re: this info coming out.
