A closer analysis of some of these stories of abuse from the standpoint of medical professionalism, primarily utilizing the example of Larry Nassar, DO, yields potential ways in which instances of abuse may be reduced or eliminated. The goal of this paper is to elicit lessons that can be learned from these tragic sequences of events so that physicians, healthcare institutions, physician practices, medical boards, and even patients themselves can introduce measures that help prevent future stories like these.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1515\/jom-2024-0127","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,8,28]],"date-time":"2024-08-28T06:06:31Z","timestamp":1724825191000},"page":"55-60","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Protecting the profession: lessons from the recent physician scandals"],"prefix":"10.1515","volume":"125","author":[{"given":"R.
