Greenbrier mammography shutdown draws third lawsuit

The latest proposed class action follows an FDA-ordered halt to mammography at The Greenbrier Clinic after concerns over exams performed between October 2023 and February 2026.

A third proposed class-action lawsuit has been filed against The Greenbrier Clinic over mammography quality concerns, according to federal docket records and West Virginia legal reporting. April Wilson and Erin Dotson filed the latest complaint on May 20 in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of West Virginia.

The complaint names The Greenbrier Clinic as defendant and lists the case as a contract action with a jury demand. The docket identifies Wilson and Dotson as plaintiffs and lists the case number as 5:2026cv00355.

The West Virginia Record reported that the latest complaint follows 2 earlier proposed class actions against the clinic, including a federal case filed by Tabitha Martin on April 7. Justia docket records list Martin v. The Greenbrier Clinic as case number 5:2026cv00252 in the same federal district.

The litigation centers on mammograms performed at the clinic between October 28, 2023, and February 26, 2026. Plaintiff attorneys allege that more than 1,000 patients received mammograms during the affected period.

According to the first federal complaint as summarized by The West Virginia Record, patients received a March 23 letter stating there was “a serious concern about the quality of the mammography” performed at the facility during that period. The same report said the letter stated that FDA required the clinic to stop performing mammograms as of February 26, 2026.

The reported letter said FDA determined the facility failed to meet clinical image quality standards established by its accreditation body. Local reporting has identified the American College of Radiology as the accreditation body involved.

Powell & Majestro, one of the firms pursuing claims, said affected patients include those who received a mammogram at The Greenbrier Clinic between October 28, 2023, and February 26, 2026, and received the March 23 notification letter. The firm said the action seeks to represent patients regardless of state residency.

FDA’s MQSA page says mammography facilities must be certified, accredited by an FDA-approved accreditation body, undergo periodic clinical image review, and continue to meet federal standards for personnel, equipment, radiation dose, quality assurance, recordkeeping, and reporting.

The Greenbrier Clinic is located in White Sulphur Springs, WV, and operates within The Greenbrier resort property. The resort is owned by the family of U.S. Sen. Jim Justice, according to West Virginia legal reporting.

The pending federal cases remain at the complaint stage. Justia’s docket pages note that docket listings are litigation records and should not be treated as findings of fact or liability.
