Sex to cure patients, the medical student: “I didn’t report it immediately fearing retaliation for exams”

“The fact that Dr. Miniello had told me he was a professor at the specialization school in gynecology led me not to report the sexual violence I suffered. I was afraid that if I denounced him, thanks to his knowledge he could influence my plan of studies making me fail the last medical exams “: there was awe as a patient, but also that of a student behind the hesitations that a young woman from Bari had two years ago in reporting the harassment suffered by the gynecologist Giovanni Miniello, until five years ago in service at the Policlinico di Bari and then dedicated to private activity.
