Anthony Pignataro exemplifies narcissistic personality disorder in medicine, using forged credentials and manipulation to practice despite repeatedly failing residencies and harming patients. His story reveals how narcissism and hubris in healthcare can lead to devastating consequences when warning signs are ignored, and systems fail to protect patients.

Join us next week for part two of this shocking case, where we'll reveal more of Anthony's victims, the investigations that followed, and the ultimate consequences of his actions.
