Summary

Mark Weinberger didn’t ask for much. All he wanted was an 80-foot yacht, a sushi chauffeur, a skinny wife, and a five-story townhome. Luckily, Mark could afford his glitzy lifestyle. He was an ear nose and throat surgeon – and not just *any* ear nose and throat surgeon – he was The Nose Doctor of Merrillville, Indiana. As it turned out, damn near everyone who walked into his clinic needed sinus surgery!

And now for a note about our process. For this episode, Kristin read a bunch of articles, then spat them back out in her very limited vocabulary. We owe a huge debt of gratitude to the real experts who covered these cases.

In this episode, Kristin pulled from:
“The Runaway Doctor” by Buzz Bissinger for Vanity Fair
Vanity Fair Confidential “The Runaway Doctor”
“Convicted ‘Runaway Doctor’ starts new life after prison, leaving former patient shocked,” by Rob Stafford and Lisa Capitanini for NBC Chicago
