New podcast reveals how female patients' pain often ignored

Season 2023 Episode 252 | 6m 36s

A new podcast is bringing to light the abuses suffered at a fertility clinic at Yale. In 2020, a nurse secretly replaced vials of an opioid used to reduce pain during egg retrievals with saline solution. That meant the women felt the procedure, some describing excruciating agony while the clinic downplayed or ignored them. Lisa Desjardins discussed more with Susan Burton, host of “The Retrievals.”
