Ep 81-When Prescriptions Become A Weapon: Dr. Craig A. Spiegel

Send us Fan Mail A tire pressure alert leads to a nail in the tread, and a split second label check stops an anaphylaxis scare and then the tone shifts hard. We’re talking about the kind of betrayal that makes your stomach drop: a pediatrician accused of using the prescription pad as payment, trading controlled substances for sex acts, nude photos, and cash. The allegations span years, and the case ends with a guilty plea and a 20 year federal prison sentence. If you care about medical ethics, patient safety, controlled substance prescribing, and the real world gaps that let harm hide in plain sight, press play.
