Dr. Death | S1: Dr. Duntsch - Spineless | 4

If a doctor is fired from a hospital, the hospital should report it immediately. That’s how problem doctors are prevented from getting hired elsewhere. But the places where Dr. Duntsch operated failed to report him to the proper authorities. If they had, maybe Duntsch’s path of destruction would have been stopped much sooner.Please tell us what you think about our show and help us by answering a few questions at <a href="http://wondery.com/survey" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">wondery.com/survey</a>Subscribe to Dr Death on <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/dr-death/id1421573955?mt=2" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Apple</a>, <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/1SdNTEhycBu8JebWnTRsjd" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Spotify</a>, <a href="https://one.npr.org/?sharedMediaId=644452243:644452245" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">NPR One</a>, <a href="https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/wondery/dr-death" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Stitcher</a> or sign up for email updates at&nbsp;<a href="http://wondery.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">wondery.com</a>&nbsp;to stay up to date about future episodes.Listen ad free with Wondery+, including exclusive bonus episodes.

As medical experts praise Serhat Gumrukcu’s genius, the company he co-founded rockets in value to over half a billion dollars. 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.
