Attorneys representing a couple & their daughter said the family will soon be filing a lawsuit that claims an Akron City Hospital doctor inseminated the wife with a stranger’s sperm instead of her husband’s.
According to a news release, the doctor serving the couple was Dr. Nicholas J. Spirtos, who the attorneys said was working as Chief of the Division of Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility and In Vitro Fertilization/Embryo Transfer., the system that oversees Akron City Hospital, currently offers the option to book an appointment with Spirtos.
Mike Bernstein, Summa Health Corporate Communications System Director, released the following statement to 19 News about the potential lawsuit: “We are aware of an allegation that has been made claiming in 1991 a patient was artificially inseminated with the semen from a person who is not her husband. We take this allegation seriously and understand the impact this has on the family. At this point, we have not met with the family or conducted testing of our own.
The family, represented by Peiffer Wolf Carr Kane Conway & Wise attorneys, intends to file a lawsuit Wednesday in the Summit County Court of Common Pleas, according to the release.The attorneys are calling for more oversight on the fertility industry in wake of the alleged mix-up, which they said is currently unregulated by the federal government.Copyright 2022 WOIO.
