Hundreds of Doctors Keep Practicing After Sexually Abusing Patients

More than half of the 2,400 US doctors disciplined for sexually abusing patients since 1999 were allowed to continue seeing—and abusing—patients, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports following a yearlong investigation. That includes a Missouri doctor who got aroused while asking a patient if she liked being tied up and peed on, a Kentucky doctor who put his mouth on a patient's vagina when he was supposed to be examining her abdomen, and a California psychiatrist who grabbed a patient's breast and ejaculated on her hand. There were examples in all 50 states of doctors of all stripes sexually abusing patients, from babies to women in their 80s. “They’re concerned only about one thing, and that’s their personal gratification," a lawyer for one group of victims tells ABC News.
