Malpractice to Manslaughter: Robert Levy The Miss Medical Podcast

    • Medicine

Welcome back for the final segment of our season one finale!
Today, we're building on the story we began last week, where we learned about the life of Jerry Kolpek. This week, we're learning about the depth of negligence that Jerry's doctor was charged with. And we're not just talking about a malpractice case - while it may have been called manslaughter in the courts, to many of the families involved, it was straight up murder.
This is the story of the fall of Dr Robert Levy.
