Dr. Death

by Wondery

Dr. Death is an investigative podcast that delves into the shocking case of Dr. Christopher Duntsch, a neurosurgeon who left a trail of patients permanently injured, or dead, on his operating table. Season 1, titled "Dr. Duntsch," follows the story of this infamous doctor who, despite evidence of incompetence and malpractice, was able to continue his dangerous surgeries for years. With deeply researched interviews, including with some of Dr. Duntsch's patients and colleagues, the podcast uncovers just how this physician was able to evade scrutiny for so long, and the devastating effects he had on those who trusted him. The hosts paint a gripping, and horrifying, picture of the damage that can be wrought by those with power and ambition, and the importance of holding medical professionals accountable for their actions.

Listen Now – Exposed: Cover-Up at Columbia University

11m · Published 18 Sep 08:00

Dr. Robert Hadden was a trusted OB-GYN at Columbia University. Friendly, caring, unassuming… and behind the closed door of exam rooms, one of the most prolific sexual predators in New York City. During his 25-year career, he assaulted hundreds, perhaps thousands, of patients, under the guise of medical exams. Those who tried to warn Columbia were ignored or not believed. When it appeared that no one — not Hadden, not Columbia — would be held to account, it was the survivors who undertook a decade-long fight for justice.

From Wondery, Exposed: Cover-Up at Columbia University is a story about power: who has it, who loses it, and what it takes to get it back.
