Description

Two years ago, a Seattle doctor was investigated for fertility fraud. While the state investigated, he continued to see patients who were unaware of the allegations.

KUOW reporters Katie Campbell and Diana Opong looked into how this case highlights the tension between a doctor’s right to due process, and a patient’s desire for information.
