One of the stars of the new ABC documentary series "Hooking Up" has claimed she was kicked out of the Army for appearing on the sassy singles show.
Dr. Lisa Aptaker, 36, a gynecologist, is one of 11 New York women who agreed to be followed by a camera crew as they went out on dates with men they met through the Internet.
Aptaker said she was discharged from an Army medical training program two weeks ago as promos of the ABC show began airing.
"I am calling for an immediate reappointment," she told the Daily News after hiring an attorney to help her get back into the Army.
But the military disputed her allegations.
"Her discharge had nothing whatsoever to do with her appearance on a television show," said Army spokesman Paul Boyce. "We've had soldiers on 'Queer Eye for the Straight Guy,' [and] on MTV."
Boyce said Aptaker was given an "honorable discharge," but declined to say why she was shown the door.
"The privacy act prohibits government officials from talking about individual personnel actions," he said.
Aptaker also refuted allegations raised in documents over her bid for a medical license in Florida that question her "mental condition" and about personnel problems with colleagues at previous jobs.
"All I have to say is the U.S. government spent a year doing an exhaustive background check," she said.
