? EARS TO THE GROUND-

An episode a day keeps the doctors away. Hosted by Laura Beil and produced by Wondery, Dr. Death is a podcast that exposes doctors who abused their practice and were implicated in crimes.

Dive deep into the chilling tale of Dr. Christopher Duntsch. Season one of Dr. Death tells the story of a Dallas neurosurgeon whose incompetence led to devastating botched surgeries, which left many patients paralyzed or dead.

Try not to lose faith in the healthcare system. Beil's narrative explores the systemic failures that allowed Duntsch to continue practicing medicine despite numerous warnings and disastrous outcomes. From this, she uncovers cracks in the medical system, raising questions about accountability and patient safety.

In essence of the true-crime genre, Beil refrains from sensationalizing Duntsch himself, opting instead to examine the broader implications of his actions. This approach keeps the focus on the personal stories of the victims and the medical professionals who ultimately took a courageous stand against Duntsch.
