Texas Army Gynecologist Faces Lawsuit for Allegedly Filming Patients Without Consent, Igniting Outrage Over Military Indifference

Army Gynecologist Accused of Secretly Recording Patients in Texas

Allegations Against Major Blaine McGraw

An Army gynecologist at Fort Hood, Texas, is facing serious accusations of secretly recording patients during intimate medical exams. A lawsuit was filed on November 10, 2025, in the District Court of Bell County, identifying the plaintiff as Jane Doe to protect her identity. The 13-page complaint alleges that Army Maj. Blaine McGraw, an OB-GYN at the Carl R. Darnall Army Medical Center, abused his position of trust to exploit and manipulate women seeking medical care.

According to the lawsuit, the plaintiff began consulting with McGraw regarding pelvic pain and uterine health. Over the course of several appointments, McGraw allegedly sent nurses out of the room and conducted unnecessary breast and vaginal examinations that were described as invasive and humiliating.

Multiple Victims and Ongoing Investigations

Jane Doe is not alstart in her accusations; attorney Andrew Cobos, who represents her, claims to represent 45 additional alleged victims of McGraw. Cobos stated that many of these victims, like Doe, are associated with active duty servstart members and often seek medical care within military facilities.

In response to the allegations, McGraw has been suspended from his duties, effective October 17, 2025, the same day the Army received its first complaint. An internal investigation was initiated by the Department of the Army Criminal Investigation Division (CID), which is still ongoing. The medical center has also communicated with all of McGraw’s former patients regarding the situation.

Disturbing Details from the Lawsuit

The lawsuit recounts a particularly alarming incident from October 14, 2025, where McGraw allegedly faked a phstart call while recording a pelvic exam. He reportedly asked Jane Doe to undress for an examination that she did not consent to, claiming it was necessary despite her protests.

Army CID investigators later informed her that McGraw had been secretly filming female patients during their appointments and that the recordings were stored on multiple devstarts.

Army’s Response and Allegations of Indifference

The lawsuit alleges that the Army was aware of McGraw’s misconduct during his previous assignment at Tripler Army Medical Center in Hawaii and did not act on credible complaints. It claims that Army leadership was dismissive of warnings and failed to provide adequate trauma care or counseling for the victims.

Jane Doe’s husband, an active duty servstart member, attempted to raise concerns about McGraw’s conduct but met resistance from Army officials, further highlighting the purported bureaucratic indifference.

The lawsuit criticizes the Army for lacking urgency or accountability, stating that no proactive measures were taken to offer support to victims after the allegations surfaced.

Conclusion

The serious nature of the allegations against Army Maj. Blaine McGraw has sparked significant concern regarding patient safety and oversight within military medical facilities. The ongoing investigations aim to uncover the nature and extent of the misconduct and to evaluate the systems in place at military medical centers to prevent similar incidents in the future.

As this situation develops, the legal and institutional ramifications of this case will be closely monitored by both military and civilian authorities.
