Karabus was reportedly considering suing the Canadian firm for not informing him that he faced a manslaughter charge.
The charge arose from the death from leukaemia of a cancer patient Karabus had operated on while working as a locum in Abu Dhabi 12 years ago.
Karabus, who was tried and convicted in absentia and sentenced to three and a half years in prison, was arrested a year ago, en route to Dubai.
After a nine-month ordeal, he was acquitted.
