While genetic testing kits have helped millions of consumers find relatives and learn about their genealogy, it is not often that the results seem too fantastical to be real life. Nurse advocate Maggie Ortiz joins us on this episode to discuss the disturbing case of Dr. Donald Cline, a fertility doctor who fathered over 94 children by artificially inseminating patients with his own DNA. Maggie is featured as the Good Nurse of the week as she details what it really means to be a nurse advocate.
