“The claims relate to former gynecologic oncologist Farid Fata, who ran a cancer treatment clinic and purposefully misdiagnosed or poisoned with cancer treatment more than 550 patients across seven locations through his practice. In 2016, more than three dozen patients won an $8 million settlement in a malpractice suit against Fata, which involved one of Ascension Michigan’s hospitals and two other providers. Fata is serving a 45-year sentence in federal prison.”
