Dr. Death | S1: Dr. Duntsch - Occam’s Razor | 3

Kimberly Morgan was attracted to Christopher Duntsch from the moment she met him. He was charming and seemed destined for great things. But she also saw another side to him. Duntsch’s behavior led many people who came into contact with him to wonder: Was he an impaired physician? A terrible surgeon?

BJ Ellison was a friend of Kim's at the time.

I always thought she was a little wacky in the love department, but who am I?

Kimberly was coming back from a beach vacation when she got a call from a doctor she knew,

saying that a new Dallas neurosurgeon was setting up his office.

She had just gotten off a plane and she was in short shorts. She was tan.

She had a t-shirt. She went right in for the interview off the plane.

Kim was attracted to Chris Dunches intellect and raw ambition.

She said she thought that he was going to make millions. He was smart. He was brilliant.

He was a genius. He would be heading up a neurosurgeon called Department of Baylor

So she had a thing for him instantly. Yes.

Dunch was living with his girlfriend, Wendy Young, who by this time was about five months

pregnant. Chris did his best to keep these two women apart. He told Kim that Wendy was

a secretary from back in Memphis and that her husband would be moving to Dallas soon.

But when a team of researchers makes a startling discovery, they begin to suspect the brilliant doctor is hiding a secret.Season 3: Paolo is a smart and handsome surgeon, renowned for his ability to perform surgeries that transform his patients’ lives. When television producer Benita covers him for a story, he’ll transform her life too, but not in the ways she expects. As Benita crosses professional lines to be with him, she learns how far Paolo will go to protect his secrets. And halfway around the world, four doctors at a prestigious medical institute make shocking discoveries of their own that call everything into question.Season 2: If someone you love is diagnosed with cancer you want them to get the best treatment from the best doctors. In 2013, patients in Michigan thought Farid Fata was that doctor. Between his prestigious education, years of experience and pleasant bedside manner, Fata was everything you could want in a doctor. But he was not who he appeared to be. From Wondery, this is the story of hundreds of patients in Michigan, a doctor, and a poisonous secret.Season 1: We’re at our most vulnerable when we go to our doctors. We trust the person at the other end of that scalpel. We trust the hospital. We trust the system. Christopher Duntsch was a neurosurgeon who radiated confidence. He claimed he was the best in Dallas. If you had back pain, and had tried everything else, Dr. Duntsch could give you the spine surgery that would take your pain away. But soon his patients started to experience complications, and the system failed to protect them. Which begs the question: who - or what - is that system meant to protect? From Wondery, the network behind the hit podcast Dirty John, Dr. Death is a story about a charming surgeon, 33 patients and a spineless system.
