Good and important

This happened at my university as well. A psychiatrist. My doctor but thankfully not to me. Hearing all the successful, amazing people this happened to us a reminder that this can really happen to anyone. I wish sexual assault by doctors was taken more serious. It is not your fault. I still don’t trust doctors

Very good

Shocked by the crime and its coverer, and also deeply moved by victims’ never-give-up fighting for the rights and justice.

Well produced and interesting

I applaud the producers of this podcast. It was very well researched and had a good mix of patient accounts and narrator commentary. It’s shocking that Columbia, such a revered institution, did nothing to investigate these horrendous crimes. Although there was accountability in the end for the dr., it took far too long and the abuse perpetuated under an institution that allowed it to.
