Birth with Liv
Part true crime, part birth podcast, we cover the unbelievable story of my longtime OBGYN, Dr. Javaid Perwaiz, and how I escaped him weeks before he was arrested by the FBI. As the episode unfolds, you’ll hear the dark details of his evil, decades long crime against women.
Listen now to hear the red flags the healthcare system missed over the years, my experience, and what led to his sentence of 59 years in prison. This story reinforces the importance of finding a care provider you trust, obtaining informed choice, and bodily autonomy.
