Questions after sexual abuse by a healthcare provider
The abuse happened during a medical exam. Does that change the claim?
+It can add licensing, hospital, and informed-consent issues, but the core is still a violation of bodily autonomy and institutional duty.
What if the doctor still practices?
+A civil claim is separate from a medical-board complaint. Both can be discussed in a review.
