This week, Andrea and Dr. Bex dive into the controversial Dr. Paolo Bolognese, a neurosurgeon with a significant number of malpractice lawsuits and explore his role in the Rady Children's lawsuit. Andrea and Dr. Bex also highlight the complexities of medical malpractice, particularly in neurosurgery, emphasizing the risks associated with experimental procedures and the importance of informed consent. They also explore a darker side of medicine—where financial incentives might be shaping decisions more than patient outcomes and niche specialists become gatekeepers to high-risk surgeries. The conversation culminates in a whistleblower complaint that reveals systemic issues within the field. *** This podcast is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

True Story Media. Hello, it's Andrea, and today Dr. Becks and I are taking a little detour on the windy road of the Rady Children's case to discuss one of the doctors at the center of it, New York neurosurgeon Dr. Paolo Bolognese. To say that this case just keeps getting stranger is an understatement. We are only two weeks away from our season six launch. I can hardly believe it.
And we will be dropping the trailer tomorrow. So keep an eye out for that. I am so proud of the team's work on our new season. It is our most ambitious work yet, and I think it's also our best. A reminder that if you subscribe on Apple or Patreon, you can binge the whole thing ad-free on launch day, June 19th.
You're also going to get a lot of exclusive bonus content over there, and it's just a wonderful way to support the show. If that's not an option for you, rating and reviewing always helps, as does sharing the show with friends. And I know I sound like a bit of a broken record with these CTAs, but we are a fully independent production and I appreciate your support more than you know.
So with that, on with the show.
