About this listen

He was a trusted OB-GYN working inside one of the most prestigious universities in the world, an Ivy League school that is home to Nobel Prize winners and medical all-stars. Yet behind closed doors, Dr. Robert Hadden assaulted hundreds — perhaps thousands — of unsuspecting patients. When it looked like no one would be held accountable, the survivors engaged in a decade-long fight for justice.

From the team behind the hit series Dr. Death, host and medical journalist Laura Beil unfurls the story of Dr. Hadden’s horrific behavior and the ensuing cover-up. It’s a story of power: who has it, how they use it, and what it takes to get it back.

It’s a story of women who wanted an arrogant institution to be exposed. When will women be heard at the same level as men? New York women are a special breed.

They wouldn’t give up.

How outrageous that it must take so much luck and so much work by so many, over so much time, to stop a single bad actor? This in-depth, informative limited series is just excellent in every respect. It's left me feeling satisfied and / but also filled with indignation and anger. Thank you and congrats to the entire team.

Excellent listen; important report
