About this listen

This week on Empty Nesters & True Crime, Susan and Nancy dive into the horrifying case of Dr. Farid Fata, a once-respected oncologist who preyed on his patients in the most unimaginable way. Behind the mask of a trusted doctor, Fata was responsible for misdiagnosing countless patients, subjecting them to unnecessary treatments, and inflicting needless pain—all for personal gain.

Join Susan and Nancy as they unravel the details of Fata’s shocking crimes, exploring the impact on his victims and how justice was ultimately served. Paired with the sinister Evil Doctor cocktail, this episode is both chilling and eye-opening.
