Ex-Fox News Quack Doctor Keith Ablow Accused of Sexually Exploiting Patients
The Daily Beast ^ | February 21, 2019 | Julia Arciga

A former member of Fox News’ “Medical A-Team” was reportedly sued by three female patients within the past year claiming he lured them into sexual relationships that degraded the women through beatings and bondage. One woman even got a tattoo featuring the doctor’s initials so that he could claim “ownership” of her.

According to The Boston Globe, the three malpractice lawsuits against Dr. Keith Ablow claim that he instilled feelings of distrust and “self-recrimination” while treating the women for depression. The three women involved said they relocated to Massachusetts from other states at Ablow’s request.

One Ohio woman described how she received Ketamine shots after visiting Ablow in 2015 to treat her depression and started having Skype sessions with him. Ablow reportedly began to ask the woman personal questions, then started asking her about her sexual preferences—specifically if she liked to be dominant or submissive.

“I had never had a therapist or any professional take such an interest in me,” the woman said in her affidavit, obtained by the Globe. “At some point, it became normalized and frankly necessary for me to communicate with Dr. Ablow several times a day.”

She soon moved to Newburyport to be closer to Ablow for sessions. She reportedly recalled undressing in front of him and performing oral sex. He also allegedly beat her while she kneeled on the floor.

“Sometimes he would use his hands and other times he would take off the belt he was wearing and use that to strike me,” the woman wrote. “This belt had a metal buckle with a skull on it.”

Another former patient of Ablow’s, from New York, got a tattoo of Ablow’s initials upon his request and endured allegedly abusive behavior.

Holy crap!

I’ve no idea if any of that is true, but there does seem to be some corroboration there, so I don’t know.

But would it surprise me if it was true? Nope.

I know this much. Sexual deviants are some damn dangerous mother f***ers.

Wow. What is with the sexually suggestive names for getting into certain kinds of shenanigans?

First Weiner, and now “Ablow”, :P

I don’t know if it’s true, but I have always heard psychologists are the most likely in the medical field to sexually abuse a patient.

Just checked the Massachusetts Board of Registration In Medicine website and found that he's Board Certified in Forensic Psychiatry.

I kid you not!

Men, do not take any women clients/patients anymore.

Otherwise you are just risking disaster.
