ApolloMD Emergency Group ApolloMD hired my EM Physician and did not pay the fee for recruitment services Chicago Nationwide

I am a Senior Executive Recruiter that was in communication in trying to place a physician at MetroSouth Hospital in Blue Island, IL for over a year. During that time the hospital took on ApolloMD EM Group instead of the group that I was originally working with. I made them aware that my candidate that was in credentialing did in fact come through an Executive Recruiter and if they hired her, they need to pay us a fee. No one would respond and when they finally did they said they won't pay our 25K fee for our years work of time involved and ultimately ended up 'stealing' my services and candidate.
