@billnumber6 He later resigned. The allegations (not proven in court) sound nasty:
❝Epstein, according to the report, was accused by other doctors of pressuring them to change diagnoses and defer to his wishes over several years. In some cases, according to the people familiar with the accusations, doctors said they felt pressured to give second opinions that agreed with diagnoses made by Epstein’s wife, a pathologist at a urology center in Beltsville, Md. In one case, a misdiagnosis led to a patient’s bladder being removed, according to the report and the people.❞

This does sound troubling on the surface, but later in the document you give the link to, it said this
The hospital’s review, Epstein said, included the case involving the bladder. He said that an outside pathologist “agreed with my diagnosis and concluded that other pathologists would have arrived at the same diagnosis given the limited nature of the specimen, its morphology, and what clinical information I had at the time of the biopsy.”
The review, Epstein said, “concluded that all of these diagnoses were within good practice and what a reasonable pathologist would have diagnosed in the same situation.”
This seems to make the bladder report less damaging.
