The family doctorIn the Oregon community where Nicole Snow grew up, Dr. David Farley was always there. Recounting the same anecdote he’d told Snow, he told Medley he’d once lost a young patient to cervical cancer and needed to do another exam to keep her safe. But again, women like Medley, Snow and Pratt describe feeling belittled or dismissed. After watching a documentary about the gymnasts abused by then-team doctor Larry Nassar, Medley, Pratt and Snow launched a civil suit against Farley. Their lawsuit has been amended multiple times to add women, girls, men and boys who say they too were abused by Farley.
