Army Doctor Accused of Secretly Recording Patients

An extensive investigation is underway concerning a military doctor at Fort Hood, Texas, accused of sexually exploiting patients. The Army has contacted over 1,400 individuals who were seen by the provider, even those with no current indication of misconduct. This massive probe began after a servicemember's husband reported witnessing the doctor secretly recording his wife during an examination.

A civil lawsuit filed in a Texas court alleges that Major Blaine McGraw exploited women for years and that the Army failed to act on numerous complaints at Fort Hood and previously in Hawaii starting in 2019. The suit claims leadership dismissed warnings and allowed McGraw to continue practicing, describing the Army as providing 'cover to a predator.'

The doctor's attorney disputes the accuracy of information released to the public, suggesting leaks are intended to influence the case outcome. Meanwhile, the alleged misconduct has left some patients with lasting trauma, highlighting ongoing concerns about sexual assault and harassment within the military, echoing past issues at Fort Hood.
