Hundreds of Medical Records Found in NYC Trash

An Upper East Side medical office is scrambling for answers after the NBC New York I-Team found hundreds of their medical files thrown out with the trash. The I-Team found several boxes of medical records outside an Upper East Side office building on East 76th Street. There are several offices inside, but all the folders that had been thrown out to the curb are from one office shared by Dr. Jonathan Warman and Dr. Alexander Chun. Inside the boxes were hundreds of files listing patient names, social security numbers and sensitive medical diagnoses. Because they are gastroenterologists, there were also many pictures taken during colonoscopies. Dr. Susan Vaughn was in disbelief when the I-Team revealed her patient folder.
