Reported in 2011, Levy’s file notes his “alleged negligent performance of pregnancy termination resulting in death” in which the “patient suffered known complication-perforation of uterus.” That is, Dr. Levy himself, during the time Roe v. Wade was in effect, allegedly botched an abortion that resulted in the death of a woman.

The file bearing Levy’s name also notes an incident reported in 2007 detailed as “brain damaged infant as a result of misinterpretation of sonogram findings resulting in clearance to deliver that patient at a birthing center” that led to a settlement of $6 million. And in 2004, another seemingly horrific incident reported as “alleged patient suffered 2nd and 3rd degree burns to her labia and pereneum[sic] from a hot weighted speculum used in surgery” that saw a $7,500 settlement.
