"A charming fraud, told through the people he fooled"
This three-part documentary follows a charismatic surgeon celebrated for pioneering windpipe transplants, whose glittering reputation hid a trail of dead patients and a bizarre, manipulative romance with a television producer.

It's propulsive and stranger-than-fiction, carried by interviews with people who were genuinely fooled. The tone is sober but gripping, less about surgery itself than about how charm and institutional trust let a fraud operate in plain sight.
the jaw-dropping true story of how one man's charisma outran his catastrophic medical failures.
you find true-crime medical scandals grim or prefer cases with tidier resolutions.
