Army gynecologist took secret videos of patients during intimate exams, lawsuit says
- On Oct. 28, Fort Hood said the Criminal Investigation Command opened a probe within hours of a patient's allegation against Major Blaine McGraw, Army gynecologist, and is contacting all his patients with a dedicated call center.
- Prior complaints against McGraw were reportedly dismissed by his chain of command despite a 2019 patient complaint at Tripler Army Medical Center, Hawaii, which the lawsuit says echoes past Army failures.
- The lawsuit details incidents including McGraw inducing labor against a pregnant patient's wishes, inappropriate touching, suggestive remarks, and a military spouse seeing him about seven to eight times at Carl R. Darnall Army Medical Center.

- The lawsuit invokes the Vanessa Guillén case to underscore systemic failures, linking the allegations to the Fort Hood scandal and calling them the 'tip of the iceberg' affecting scores of military wives and daughters.
