Bianca Voss revealed that she was stunned to learn her OB-GYN was the real biological of her daughter, who is now an adult.
What We Know:
- Voss is from New Jersey and is accusing her medical doctor of “medical rape.” She says her doctor did it by secretly using his own sperm to impregnate her. The incident occurred 40 years ago and filed a federal lawsuit on Tuesday. Voss’s New York City OB-GYN is named Dr. Martin Greenberg.
- She paid $100 to secure sperm from an anonymous donor at a sperm bank in 1983. The original procedure led to the successful birth of her daughter, Robert Voss, in 1984. Roberta purchased a DNA Kit from 23andMe in 2020 and discovered who her birth father was. The test revealed her father’s name is Martin Greenberg, born in 1943 and now living in Florida.
- Voss’ attorney Jason Kane says, “Greenberg’s heinous and intentional misconduct is unethical, unacceptable and illegal.” Neither Greenberg nor his attorney has responded to messages seeking his comments. Voss lived in Manhattan’s Upper West Side at the time of the incident. The lawsuit claims that the breakthrough has left her feeling “victimized.”
- The lawsuit explains that Voss would “never” have signed off on Greenberg being the sperm donor. At the same time, her attorneys say Voss never placed any restrictions on who the donor could be. The lawsuit stated that “the amount in controversy exceeds $75,000 exclusive of interest and costs”. In addition to monetary damages, Voss and her adult daughter want to know more about Greenberg’s medical history.
Medical ethicist Arthur Caplan says that more cases like Voss are sure to come with the increasing popularity of home DNA kits.
