Gynecologist Accused of Sexual Offenses Sends Vile Email to Lactation Consultant

A lactation consultant and parenting instructor, Mirit Rosenbaum, received an offensive email from a gynecologist who is currently facing sexual offense charges. The Gynecologist initially contacted Rosenbaum via email, introducing himself as "the Gynecologist" and offering to share three medical guides he authored on pregnancy, childbirth, and fertility. Rosenbaum recognized his name from media reports about the legal proceedings against him and was surprised to receive the email at her private address. She responded by stating she had not consented to receive marketing material and that he was not permitted to present himself as a doctor.

According to Rosenbaum, the Gynecologist then sent a retaliatory email containing curses and a wish that she would contract cancer, stating, "When it comes, you will know it is from me." He signed off again as "the Gynecologist," listing his credentials as a specialist in obstetrics and gynecology and a senior expert in advanced gynecological surgery. Rosenbaum described the email as shocking, especially given her background as a former healthcare professional. She believes the Gynecologist targeted her specifically because, as a lactation consultant and parenting instructor, she interacts with mothers during a vulnerable period.

Rosenbaum decided to share screenshots of the exchange on her Facebook page. She claims that after the post gained traction online, she received numerous messages from women who alleged they had also been victims of the Gynecologist's misconduct. These women reportedly felt empowered by her public post and shared that the system had been ignoring their complaints. The incident occurs amidst ongoing proceedings against the Gynecologist by the Ministry of Health, which has restricted his medical license for an additional five years pending the conclusion of criminal proceedings against him for alleged sexual offenses.

In response, the Gynecologist stated that his harsh remarks were made after a barrage of personal attacks against him that same day, including wishes for his children's deaths and threats to his life, pushing him to a breaking point. He characterized the article as driven by self-righteousness and a pursuit of likes, asserting he is being made the scapegoat. He acknowledged the severity of his words but explained they stemmed from pain and frustration after enduring four years of online attacks. The Gynecologist added that he is currently involved in a criminal proceeding with a single complainant, has never been convicted, and believes he will be acquitted.
