2. Dr. William Miofsky whistleblowing case
After witnessing anesthesiologist Dr. Miofsky repeatedly rubbing his groin on the faces of unconscious patients in operating room – including a 12-year old girl – nurse assisting in operation Sandra Doll Neri informed Allyne Waters O’Kane, the chief OR nurse. Her claims were dismissed as “nonsense”. Unfortunately for Dr. Miofsky, nurse Neri was a stubborn woman. She organized other nurses in the hospital and soon after they put together a case, documenting Dr. Miofsky sexual harassments. He was sent to Atascadero State Hospital, while nurse O’Kane lost her license.
