Dr. Michael Kamrava, the fertility doctor who implanted Nadya Suleman with octuplets, has been sued for medical malpractice at least 12 times. While most of these lawsuits were dismissed, this is still an alarming figure for one doctor.
In one of the lawsuits, a 19-year-old woman claimed Dr. Kamrava was guilty of negligence due to a misdiagnosis in her prenatal care. As a result, her baby was stillborn. Another lawsuit alleged that Dr. Kamrava overmedicated a patient and performed artificial insemination at an unsuitable time.
Dr. Kamrava also has one of the worst success rates of any fertility clinic in the United States. In 2006, he performed 61 fertility procedures. Only five resulted in pregnancies, and only two of those led to births. Another fertility doctor in the Beverly Hills area commented, “These are the worst numbers I’ve ever seen. This is absurdly low.”
