A doc who videotaped himself having sex with a patient
Every so often I hear about a doctor charged with having sex with a patient while she is under general anesthesia or something like that. Besides being nuts for all the usual reasons, such conduct is incomprehensible because it is wholly unnecessary. Given the number of women who are medical groupies, a doctor who wants a little extracurricular action has no need to force himself on anyone.
Still, there are perverts out there. One physician that I know—this is coming from my old boss, so this is hearsay—would sometimes masturbate women during pelvic exams. What on earth was he trying to accomplish by doing that? Did he believe that his fingers had some magical touch that would make women swoon over him? Did he ever stop to consider the fact that 99.99% of women do not want to be fondled by a doctor, and that such depravity could be very upsetting to them?
According to my boss, this character would also “press himself” against women. I never bothered to ask my boss for a clarification of what he meant by that, but I presumed he was trying to entice the women with the size of his erection. Sort of like those free boxes of cereal that arrive in your mailbox. “Here's a free sample! Now that we've enticed you, don't you want some more?” Kooky.
His earlier actions were just a warm-up for the pinnacle of his depravity. He took a willing patient into the hospital chapel and, apparently in an attempt to preserve the memory of such a precious moment, videotaped himself as he was having sex with her. He may have gone on to bigger and better things, except for the existence of two things: the videotape and a baby. My boss told me this story a few years before it hit the papers and the courts, and I always wondered why someone like him—whose life was dependent upon a veneer of being socially correct—never turned the guy in to the prosecutor.
As an epilogue to this story, I heard that Dr. Stud is now practicing medicine in Saudi Arabia. Since they seem to be rather intolerant of infidels and scoundrels, this seems to be an unlikely refuge for someone with such a lurid past. However, I am sure the Stud Muffin has more in store for us. I'll keep you posted on this site.
I covered this story in more detail in an interview I did with a student that is posted on my www.ERbook.net site. Here's an excerpt:
Dr. Pezzi: I used to work with a fellow who was notorious for shenanigans such as taking a patient into the hospital chapel and rigging up his video camera to tape him having sex with her in that hallowed area. My boss told me about that years before the state prosecutor got wind of it, but my boss didn't fire the guy when he learned of that unethical affair.
Ingrid: Why not?
Dr. Pezzi: Who knows? One explanation I heard was because the philandering doc's sons were high school football stars. I found that difficult to believe, but the application of justice is often very uneven in hick towns. What I think is a more accurate answer is that the doc in question was part of the social fabric of that town, even if the fabric were, ahem, stained.
Ingrid: In my government class in high school we discussed the rule of law, and how laws should be uniformly applied regardless of the social status of the offender.
Dr. Pezzi: The rule of law is often a joke. If a police officer pulls over a person for speeding and then discovers that the speeder is his wife, do you think she'll receive a ticket? Almost certainly not. If that speeder were a teenage boy with a nose ring and a bad attitude, a ticket is a virtual certainty. One of my friends has a real lead foot, but she's never received a ticket in her life. Why? She's exceptionally attractive. Surprised?
Ingrid: Not really. Maybe that's why I've never received a ticket.
Dr. Pezzi: That just goes to show that law, rules, and regulations mean different things for different people. Some people are effectively above the law.
Ingrid: But the doctor who had sex with a patient in the hospital chapel was eventually prosecuted, wasn't he?
Dr. Pezzi: Yes, but only because he had an overblown sense of his immunity. Had he played it a bit safer, the local yokels wouldn't have turned him in. Actually, from what I know of this case, they never did. I think the state prosecutors learned about it from the newspapers. It certainly wasn't my boss saying "Tisk, tisk, if you have sex with a patient in the hospital chapel, you can't work in this ER!"

How to Lose Weight Without Dieting,
Drugs, Herbs, Exercise, or Surgery
by Kevin Pezzi, MD
You can lose weight easily. I did it, and so can you. I'm Kevin Pezzi, MD. When I got out of my residency program, I was so fat that I could not see my feet when I stood up. Although I am now 19 years older, I have a better body than most teenagers. How did I get in such good shape — and stay that way? Probably not in the way you think. My work is primarily sedentary, I eat sweets, and I never starve myself. In fact, I usually eat until I am full, and I typically “pig out” at least once per week. I don't use any drugs or herbs to lose weight. I exercise occasionally, but the workouts are brief and not too strenuous.
So how did I lose weight easily, and keep in great shape without torturing myself? Before I explain that, I must tell you a bit about myself, and why I feel that I am more qualified than an average weight loss expert. I graduated in the top 1% of my class in medical school. If nothing else, that is a testament to the fact that I learned more than 99% of my colleagues. However, the key to generating a real breakthrough in weight loss or any other field is an innovative mind. I may be smarter or more academically successful than 99% of other doctors, but formal schooling is not my forte. My strength is innovation and inventing. I have over 850 inventions and countless innovative ideas. One of those ideas pertains to how a person can lose weight easily without dieting, drugs, herbs, exercise, or surgery. I conceived this idea years ago, but never mentioned it because it was so obvious to me that I was certain one of the “big name” weight loss experts would also think of it. But they never did. They're just rehashing old ideas and getting rich in the process, even if their advice is lackluster. Take Dr. Phil, for example. He rose to fame as a protégé of Oprah, and he is truly gifted in delivering pithy quips. Lately, however, he seems to believe that he is a weight loss expert. That is laughably ironic to me, considering that Dr. Phil is overweight. I heard him trying to excuse this by blaming it on an old injury, but don't we all have excuses? I could have stayed a blimp and blamed it on my sedentary job, bad joints, and pudgy genes. But I didn't want excuses, I wanted results.
I hated schooling, but I love to read extensively. I learned many great weight loss tips, and I developed some tips myself, including the breakthrough idea on how it's possible to lose weight easily without dieting, drugs, herbs, exercise, or surgery. I described these tips in my book, How to Lose Weight Without Dieting, Drugs, Herbs, Exercise, or Surgery. You can buy that book for as little as $7, read it in an afternoon, and be on your way to having a great body — easily.
