ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — Jurors in New Mexico have awarded a man more than $412 million in a medical malpractice case that involved a men’s health clinic that operates in several states. The man’s attorneys are celebrating Monday’s verdict, saying they are hopeful it will prevent other men from falling victim to a scheme that involved fraud and what they described as dangerous penile injections. The attorneys call it a record judgment, saying it’s the largest medical malpractice payout in the U.S. The president of NuMale Medical Center says the company is committed to safe, high-quality patient care but declined to comment further citing ongoing legal proceedings.
