Adisgraced New York City urologist who was convicted of sexually abusing patients under the guise of medical care for years, is now being sued by over 300 former male patients.
Darius A. Paduch, of North Bergen, New Jersey, was convicted by a jury in Manhattan federal court in May of 11 counts relating to the sexual abuse of seven patients, including four who were children during part of the abuse, The Associated Press reported.
He had been indicted in April 2023, and over time the number of his accusers only grew.
On Tuesday, 143 new civil cases were filed in New York Supreme Court against Paduch, and the hospitals that previously employed him, attorney Anthony T. DiPietro said.
Paduch worked as a urologist in New York City from 2003 through 2023 specializing in male infertility and male reproductive health, according to his indictments.
