Patients trust doctors, nurses, and healthcare providers with their most personal and vulnerable moments. Tragically, some medical professionals exploit this trust, committing acts of sexual abuse against those they are supposed to help. Survivors of doctor sexual abuse in Pennsylvania have the right to seek justice through the civil court system.
Our Pennsylvania doctor sexual abuse lawyers are committed to standing beside survivors. We help patients file civil lawsuits not only against the individual perpetrator but also against medical facilities, hospitals, or practices that failed to prevent or properly address the misconduct.
When a Doctor or Medical Facility May Be Liable
Survivors may have the right to bring a civil claim when:
A doctor, nurse, therapist, or medical staff member committed sexual misconduct
A hospital or medical practice failed to act on prior complaints
A healthcare employer did not properly screen or supervise providers
The institution attempted to cover up known misconduct
Even if no criminal charges were filed, survivors can still pursue compensation and accountability through a civil lawsuit.
Compensation in Civil Doctor Sexual Abuse Cases May Cover:
Costs for therapy and mental health services
Pain, suffering, and emotional trauma
Medical expenses related to the abuse
Lost wages or diminished earning potential
Punitive damages for gross negligence or cover-up
Every survivor’s experience is unique. We work carefully and compassionately to honor your story while building the strongest possible legal case.
