Fox News
A new lawsuit accuses disgraced urologist Dr. Darius Paduch, New York-Presbyterian Hospital/Weill Cornell Medical Center of covering up years of sexual abuse.
Paduch, a 55-year-old former urologist at New York-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell, was initially arrested in April after he was accused of sexually assaulting patients, including minors, beginning in 2015.

Since then, dozens more alleged victims have come forward accusing the doctor of sexual abuse, and the new lawsuit filed Thursday on behalf of 58 male victims states that the alleged abuse went on between 2003 and 2022.
"I've been at this for the past 11 years. Every time the story has run, people call. That's just how it's been for over a decade. I know there are thousands of patients out there that just don't know that what he was doing was sexual exploitation and abuse," attorney Anthony T. DiPietro, who is filing a new lawsuit on behalf of dozens more alleged victims in New York Supreme Court, told Fox News Digital.
