About this case

Nearly 900 women allege that Chesapeake Regional Healthcare and its executives failed to stop former physician Javaid Perwaiz from performing medically unnecessary surgeries, including irreversible sterilizations. The class-action lawsuit was filed and remains ongoing, with Chesapeake Hospital Authority seeking dismissal on sovereign-immunity grounds; Chesapeake Regional denies wrongdoing.
