  1. Each individual who renders professional services as an employee of a domestic or foreign professional corporation is liable for a negligent or wrongful act or omission in which he personally participates to the same extent as if he rendered the services as a sole practitioner. An employee or shareholder of a domestic or foreign professional corporation is not liable, however, for the conduct of other employees or shareholders of the corporation, except a person under his direct supervision and control, while rendering professional services on behalf of the professional corporation to the person for whom such professional services were being rendered.
  2. A domestic or foreign professional corporation whose employees perform professional services within the scope of their employment or of their apparent authority to act for the corporation is liable to the same extent as its employees.
