Albuquerque, New Mexico – In a groundbreaking medical malpractice case, jurors awarded a man over $412 million in damages involving a men’s health clinic operating across several states. The verdict, celebrated by the man’s legal team, aims to shed light on a scheme that allegedly included fraud and potentially harmful penile injections. Both punitive and compensatory damages comprise the largest amount ever awarded by a U.S. jury in a medical malpractice lawsuit.

The trial, which took place in Albuquerque earlier this month, focused on accusations outlined in a 2020 lawsuit brought by the plaintiff against NuMale Medical Center and its officials. The lawsuit claims that the clinic misdiagnosed the man, aged 66 at the time, and administered invasive erectile dysfunction shots that led to irreversible damage.

Attorneys for the plaintiff condemned the actions of the medical corporation, alleging that they engaged in a fraudulent scheme to exploit older men for financial gain. According to lawyer Nick Rowley, the clinic used fear tactics to coerce patients into agreeing to frequent injections under false pretenses, warning of irreversible harm if injections were not administered regularly.

NuMale Medical Center has expressed disagreement with the jury’s verdict and intends to explore all available legal options, including an appeal. The company’s President, Brad Palubicki, emphasized their commitment to upholding patient care standards while complying with stringent safety regulations at all their facilities.

The case’s outcome signifies a significant victory for the plaintiff, as jurors found the defendants liable for fraudulent, negligent conduct that resulted in harm. The legal representatives of the man highlighted the message the verdict sends – that medical providers must prioritize patient well-being over profits, or face accountability.

The man’s attorneys hope that the substantial award and the attention garnered by this case will serve as a deterrent to prevent similar malpractice incidents in the future. With NuMale Medical Center operating in multiple states, the implications of this verdict extend beyond just one individual, setting a precedent for responsible and ethical medical practices nationwide.
