Compensation for Doctor Sexual Abuse: What You Need to Know

Doctors sometimes take advantage of patients for their own sexual gratification. If you have been the victim of sexual abuse, assault or misconduct committed by a doctor or healthcare professional, you have the right to file civil lawsuit against that doctor and the hospital or healthcare company that they work for. Bringing a civil lawsuit is separate from pressing criminal charges and successful plaintiffs can get significant financial compensation.

A lawsuit for sexual abuse or assault can be filed against the doctor who committed the act, as well as the hospital or institution that employs them. Filing a civil claim is a separate legal procedure from bringing criminal charges. Whereas a criminal case can lead to prison for the offender, only through a civil case can a survivor exact compensation for the traumatic harm that was done to them.

Doctor Sex Abuse Lawsuit News and Updates

April 1, 2025: Michigan Youth Hockey Doctor Pleads No Contest in Teen Sexual Abuse Case

Dr. Zvi Levran, a 68-year-old former physician from Farmington Hills, Michigan, has pleaded no contest to over two dozen sex crime charges involving teenage boys he met while working with youth hockey teams in Michigan and Minnesota. Levran, arrested in 2022, entered his plea on March 18, 2025, to charges including 11 counts of fourth-degree criminal sexual conduct, 10 counts of third-degree criminal sexual conduct, three counts of second-degree criminal sexual conduct, and four counts of child sexually abusive activity.

He is scheduled to be sentenced on April 29, and prosecutors have stated they will seek the maximum penalty.

February 15, 2025: Beverly Hills Doctor Charged

Beverly Hills doctor Babak Hajhosseini, 42, has been charged with multiple felony sex crimes, including rape by use of drugs and sexual assault of unconscious victims, stemming from an incident in Los Angeles.

He is currently free on a $2.175 million bond, with a preliminary hearing scheduled for February 13. If convicted, he faces up to 34 years in prison.

January 20, 2025: Doctor Sex Abuse

Dr. Edgar Archbold, a 73-year-old former doctor in Yorkville, was sentenced to 37 years in prison after pleading guilty to seven counts of criminal sexual assault of a minor. The abuse occurred over nine months at his business and home, and the victim came forward after being questioned by their mother. Law enforcement gathered critical evidence, including a recorded phone conversation where Archbold admitted to the acts. Given his age, Archbold will spend the rest of his life in prison, as he must serve at least 85% of his sentence.

When evaluating the viability of a doctor sexual assault lawsuit in cases like this, the key factor is identifying a defendant with the financial means to pay a settlement or judgment. While the doctor is directly responsible, the victims get no justice and no compensation payout because the doctor lacks the assets to compensate victims, even if a verdict is won. Our firm once secured a multi-million-dollar verdict against a doctor in a similar case, but the victim ended up with nothing (our lawyer who tried the case won Trial Lawyer of the Year for the effort). Therefore, identifying institutions—such as employers or other parties who may have enabled the abuse, who have insurance—is crucial to securing meaningful settlement compensation for victims.

January 27, 2025: Former Tufts Doctor Sentenced for Sex Trafficking

A former anesthesiologist at Tufts Medical Center was sentenced to 10 years in federal prison after being convicted of attempted child sex trafficking. The doctor was busted in 2022 as part of an undercover operation seeking to catch people soliciting sex with minors online. Dr. Sadeq Ali Quraishi was caught when he solicited two undercover agents posing as young girls ages 12 and 14.

January 14, 2025: Third Former IU Player Files Lawsuit Against Dr. Bomba

Former University of Indiana sports team doctor, Bradford Bomba Sr., was already facing a civil lawsuit by two former IU basketball players claiming that he sexually abused them during medical exams.

The new lawsuit alleges that the former player was subjected to 2 completely unnecessary prostate exams by Dr. Bomba.

January 3, 2025: Michigan Doctor Charged With Sexual Abuse of Patients

A Michigan physician facing at least 29 criminal charges for sex crimes has agreed to relinquish his license to practice medicine in Iowa. Dr. Zvi Levran, a urologist based in Farmington Hills, Michigan, has been charged by the Iowa Board of Medicine after voluntarily agreeing to restrictions on his medical practice in Michigan. The board noted that Levran’s medical license in Michigan was suspended in January 2023, and he later voluntarily surrendered his medical license in Ohio.

Dr. Levran is accused of sexually abusing young male patients during medical examinations. Dr. Levran had been a team doctor for youth hockey teams for many years, and most of his alleged victims were young teenage boys on these teams. In addition to sexual abuse during exams, Dr. Levran is being accused of taking videos of his sexual assaults and distributing them online. This will almost certainly lead to civil lawsuits against Dr. Levran and his medical practice.

December 16, 2024: Motion to Compel Testimony From Dr. Bradford Bomba

Former University of Indiana basketball team doctor, Bradford Bomba Sr., had his deposition taken earlier this year in a civil lawsuit by two former student-athletes who claim Dr. Bomba sexually abused them.

Now the plaintiffs’ lawyers have filed a motion asking a judge to compel Dr. Bomba to answer.

August 20, 2024: Victims of Montana Doctor Tyler Hurst Go Public

Dr. Hurst performed unnecessary vaginal and breast exams of female patients without gloves and often let the patients see that he was aroused. Civil lawsuits are expected to follow.

June 5, 2024: Former Arizona Doctor Arrested on Charges of Sexual Abuse

A former doctor from southwestern Arizona, Edsel Sandoval, has been arrested on charges of sexually abusing over ten of his former patients.

The investigation began last summer after initial allegations surfaced from a patient, leading to further accusations by two more victims.

He will appear in court on Tuesday.

May 20, 2024: Over 200 Former Patients of Dr. Derrick Todd File Civil Lawsuit

A group of over 200 former patients has filed a civil lawsuit claiming that they were sexually abused during medical exams by Dr. Derrick Todd, a rheumatologist in the Boston area. The lawsuit alleges that Dr. Todd sexually abused his patients by performing medically unnecessary vaginal, breast, and rectal examinations on them during medical exams for unrelated conditions. The allegations of abuse date back to 2010, and the hospital and medical practice where Dr. Todd practiced have also been named as defendants.

May 2, 2024: Growing Number Of Former Patients Filing Lawsuits Against Orange County Doctor

A growing number of former patients are filing sexual abuse lawsuits against Dr. William Moore Thompson IV in Orange County, California. Dr. Thompson was a prominent infectious disease specialist in Newport Beach who focused on treating members of the LGBTQ community. Dr. Thompson was criminally indicted earlier this year on several charges of sexual assault involving patients. The allegations accuse Dr. Thompson of performing unnecessary rectal examinations of male patients.

April 15, 2024: Oklahoma Board of Chiropractic Examiners Orders Mark Kimble to Surrender License

The Oklahoma Board of Chiropractic Examiners (OBCE) has ordered Mark Kimble, the only chiropractor at the Back Stop, to surrender his license by the upcoming Monday, following multiple allegations of sexual impropriety. Seven alleged victims have come forward with accusations against him. The first public claim involved accusations of sexual assault and physical injury during treatment. The OBCE determined that Kimble had violated their Code of Ethics, which includes prohibitions on sexual relationships with patients, based on his admission of “consensual” relationships with two patients.

Despite being suspended and subsequently placed on probation with specific conditions, such as requiring the presence of a female chaperone during sessions with female patients, further allegations emerged about inappropriate behavior when the chaperone was absent. So they are forcing him to surrender his license. Annoyingly, he can reapply in less than three years. A former patient has also initiated a lawsuit against him on several grounds, including assault and negligence. Despite these civil actions, the local District Attorney’s Office has opted not to pursue criminal charges for reasons that are not entirely clear.

These are obviously strong sex abuse lawsuits if these charges are true. It is always hard to disbelieve seven women, obviously. But is there money to pay a settlement or verdict? That is the problem in these cases against a solo chiropractor.

April 11, 2024: Former Long Island Pediatrician Stuart Copperman Found Liable in Six Separate Verdicts

Stuart Copperman, a former pediatrician from Long Island, was found liable in six separate verdicts last week, which collectively amounted to $157 million, for serial sexual abuse allegations against children. These incidents, which reportedly occurred during supposed medical examinations, took place over several decades. Over 100 survivors filed claims against this awful doctor under the Child Victims Act.

From April 1 to April 8, a special referee responsible for these cases assigned damages ranging from $10 million to $27 million. The referee also awarded punitive damages against the doctor.

This will be the case where a collection of these verdicts may prove impossible. Copperman, whose medical license was revoked in 2000 due to ongoing abuse allegations, did not participate in the litigation process and is reportedly broke.

What is Sexual Abuse By a Doctor?

The threshold question is what gives rise to a sexual assault lawsuit against a doctor? Given that examinations often involve the exposure of intimate body parts and physical contact, identifying inappropriate behavior can be a challenge and there are some cases where you “know” the doctor’s intent but it is difficult to prove.

But in most of doctor sex abuse lawsuits, the offense is obvious. There is no question that sexual assault by a medical professional occurs when a doctor violates your privacy by engaging in unwarranted sexual touching. Any type of sexual touching that does not have a valid medical purpose and is done for the purpose of sexual gratification is sexual abuse that may entitle the victim to compensation.

Below are some examples of sexual assault and abuse by doctors:

Touching intimate areas without using gloves.
Conducting procedures that feel unnecessary, such as touching sensitive areas or causing undue pain.
Disregarding your right to privacy by refusing to allow a nurse to be present during examinations.
Pressuring you to undress when it is unnecessary, such as insisting on removing clothing for a consultation about a non-related issue like a sprained ankle.
Displaying sexually suggestive expressions or gestures before, during, and after examinations.
Performing unnecessary vaginal or rectal examinations that involve attempts to sexually stimulate
Pressuring you into medically unnecessary physical examinations, such as insisting on a gynecological exam when the visit is for a different purpose, like a flu shot.
Engaging in voyeurism by installing video cameras in examination rooms and bathrooms.
Making seductive or sexual remarks before, during, and after examinations.
Coercing or forcing you into providing sexual favors in exchange for highly addictive drugs like hydromorphone and oxycontin.
Taking photos of a patient without consent or without any medical purpose

Victims Have the Right to Sue Doctors for Sexual Assault

Sexual assault or abuse by a doctor or medical professional is a crime. Doctors who commit sexual assault are frequently criminally prosecuted and can have their medical license revoked. The problem with pursuing criminal charges is that you, as the victim, have no real control over the process. The authorities may or may not take you seriously, and there is no guarantee that they will actually bring charges.

By contrast, every victim of sexual abuse by a doctor has a right to bring a civil lawsuit against the doctor for sexual battery. Victims can bring a sex abuse lawsuit against a doctor even if they never reported the abuse to the police or even told anyone about what happened.

Victims Can Get Financial Compensation for Doctor Sex Abuse

Victims who bring a successful civil lawsuit against a doctor for sexual assault can get financial compensation in the form of money damages. In a doctor sex abuse lawsuit, victims can be awarded money for the following categories of damages:

Mental Pain & Suffering: Being sexually assault by a doctor is an emotionally harmful event. Victims can feel acute mental pain and distress as a result of the incident. It can often take years for victims of sexual abuse to fully heal and some never do. When victims bring a doctor sex abuse lawsuit, they are entitled to get money damages not just for past mental pain and suffering, but also for future pain and suffering caused by the abuse.
Lost Income / Wages: The damaging impact of doctor sexual abuse can often result in lost wages or lost income as the victim may be unable to go to work or earn a living as before. Plaintiffs in sex assault cases can get compensation for past and future lost wages.
Medical Expenses: Therapy and other forms of mental healthcare are often necessary for victims of doctor sexual abuse. If the victim brings a lawsuit they can get money damages for the cost (past and future) of this treatment.

Who Can File a Doctor Sex Assault Lawsuit?

Anyone who has been the victim of sexual abuse by a doctor can file a civil lawsuit. Spouses of the victim can also bring their own claims for loss of consortium which is basically damage to the marital relationship. If the victim of the sexual abuse is a child or an elderly person, their parents or family members can bring the case on their behalf.

Holding Hospitals and Third-Parties Liable for Doctor Sex Abuse

One major issue in doctor sexual abuse cases is that the doctor’s medical malpractice insurance may not cover the claim because it is considered an intentional act rather than a negligent act. For that reason, the key to success in many doctor sexual abuse lawsuits is to go after the hospital, health system, or medical practice that employed the doctor.

The doctor’s employer such as a hospital or healthcare system can be held liable in a sexual assault case if they knew or should have known about the doctor’s misconduct but did nothing about it. For example, let’s say Dr. T is an OB/GYN who has been employed for the last 10 years by Acme Health System, a major hospital and healthcare company. During that time, Acme has received a number of complaints from Dr. T’s patients about inappropriate conduct of a sexual nature. Despite receiving these complaints, Acme never does anything and allows Dr. T to continue treating patients. Acme can be held liable in sexual abuse lawsuit for negligently enabling Dr. T to abuse patients.

Does Malpractice Insurance Cover Doctor Sexual Abuse?

Unfortunately, medical malpractice insurance for doctors usually does not provide coverage for doctor-patient sexual abuse. Malpractice insurance for healthcare professionals like doctors only provides liability coverage for negligence. These policies do not provide coverage for “intentional acts” by the doctor or healthcare provider. Sexual abuse of a patient is, by definition, an intentional act. That is why malpractice insurance coverage usually doesn’t apply.

There are ways around this problem, however, if you have a skilled and experienced lawyer. The best way to avoid this roadblock is by suing a hospital, medical practice, or other institution that employed the doctor. For example, if the doctor was an employee of a hospital or large healthcare “system” (which most doctors are these days) you can bring your sex abuse lawsuit against the hospital based on negligent hiring or negligent supervision.

Examples of Doctor Sexual Abuse

There have been a number of well-publicized instances in recent years of doctors being held accountable for sexually abusing and assaulting patients. Many of these doctors have been OB/GYNs sexually abusing vulnerable female patients during exams. However, any type of doctor or medical professional can commit sexual abuse. Below are examples of some of the more well-known cases of doctors committing sexual abuse.

Dr. Fabio Ortega – OB/GYN (Chicago Area)

Dr. Ortega was an OB/GYN in the Chicago area who was employed by NorthShore Health System. For decades, Dr. Ortega regularly sexually abused and assaulted female patients during exams.

Dr. Robert Anderson – Sport Doctor (Michigan)

Dr. Robert Anderson was a doctor at the University of Michigan. For over 30 years Dr. Anderson sexually abused young patients while administrators at UM did nothing. In 2023, the University agreed to a $490 million settlement to resolve claims by some of Dr. Anderson’s former victims. Victims can still file Dr. Anderson sexual abuse claims and get compensation.

Dr. Michael J. Gilmore – Internal Medicine (Maine)

Dr. Michael J. Gilmore was the owner and primary practitioner at Maine Functional Medicine in Bangor, ME.

Over a hundred victims have already filed sex abuse lawsuits against Dr. Broadbent.

Settlement Value of Doctor Sexual Abuse Lawsuits

The settlement value of sexual abuse lawsuits against doctors depends on a number of factors. One of the biggest factors is whether there is a third-party employer, such as a hospital or healthcare system, that can be held liable. Intentional acts such as sexual abuse are typically not covered by a doctor’s malpractice insurance. That means that financial success in a doctor sex abuse case is very often dependent on having a strong third-party liability claim against the hospital or other institution. Below are examples of verdicts and settlements involving sexual abuse by doctors.

2024, New York $157 Million Verdict. A former pediatrician from Long Island was found liable in a series of verdicts totaling $157 million for allegations of serial sexual abuse against children. The abuse reportedly took place during medical examinations and spanned several decades. More than 100 survivors filed claims against the pediatrician under the Child Victims Act, with damages for individual cases ranging from $10 million to $27 million. However, collecting these damages may prove difficult, as the pediatrician, who had his medical license revoked amid similar allegations, did not participate in the litigation and is reportedly lacking in financial resources.
2022, Michigan: $490 Million Settlement. More than 1,000 people, including ex-college football players, leveled accusations of sexual abuse and assault against former University of Michigan sports doctor Robert Anderson. They asserted that Anderson subjected them to sexual assault and abuse during regular examinations, with the claim that the university did not adequately safeguard them from his actions. The University of Michigan has reached a settlement in these lawsuits, agreeing to pay $490 million.
2021, New York: $71.5 Million Settlement. A group of over 70 women accused former Columbia University OB/GYN Robert Hadden of sexual assault for inappropriately touching them during examinations. Not atypically, many women claimed Hadden became more intrusive during subsequent exams. Hundreds of other women filed similar lawsuits. New York-Presbyterian Hospital and Columbia University Irving Medical Center agreed to settle for $71.5 million.
2021, California: $1.1 Billion Settlement. Over 700 women accused former USC gynecologist George Tyndall of sexual assault during examinations. The lawsuits alleged that USC failed to protect them from Tyndall despite having reason to know about his actions. The university agreed to settle for $1.1 billion.
2021, West Virginia: $23 Million Settlement. The Charleston Area Medical Center has agreed to pay $23 million to settle allegations of sexual assault during medical treatments. The claims were brought by women who reported being molested while under anesthesia during colonoscopy procedures at the West Virginia Medical Center. The assaults were committed by a former gastroenterologist, who was convicted of first-degree sexual abuse and sentenced to five years in prison.
2017, Ohio: $867,500 Settlement: a 46-year-old female, reportedly suffered developed severe depression and post-traumatic stress disorder after her treating physician, defendant Terrence McCoy, then an internal medicine physician, initiated and engaged in a consensual sexual relationship with Beattie while treating her for mental health issues.
