FORT HOOD, Texas (KXXV) — The Army has released the full service record of Dr. Blaine McGraw, the former Fort Hood obstetrician-gynecologist accused of secretly recording patients during private examinations, as the investigation continues and support services mobilize for alleged victims.
Watch the full story here:
McGraw's military career spanned more than a decade, beginning around 2007 when he served as a rifle platoon leader in Kentucky. His service record shows that he later completed an internship at Tripler Army Medical Center in Hawaii from June 2019 to July 2020, before working as an obstetrician-gynecologist at Carl R. Darnall Medical Center at Fort Hood, until his recent suspension.
The Army suspended McGraw from his position on Oct. 17 following a patient's allegations. Since then, military officials have established a dedicated call center, assigned special victims counsel and created a patient support line to ensure those affected have access to resources and assistance during the ongoing investigation.
Support services mobilize for survivors
Military sexual trauma advocacy organizations are stepping up to help alleged victims navigate this difficult time. Shield of Sisters, a nonprofit founded by Navy veteran Shannon Hough, is actively supporting survivors connected to the McGraw case.
"Shield of Sisters was founded out of my own need for help after being assaulted in the military 30 years ago," Hough said.
The organization, which helps female veterans overcome military sexual trauma, is providing direct support to alleged victims.
"We're offering them a safe space in our counseling office in Texas, where they can come in and sit with other survivors, with our counselors and just be there and receive the attention and support that they need," Hough said.
Hough's personal experience drives her advocacy work for military survivors.
"There was just no help and that's what got me where I am today, fighting so hard for every single survivor," Hough said.
Victims can contact Shield of Sisters through the organization’s website, by calling Shannon at 608-344-0210, or by emailing shannon@shieldofsisters.com
Legal proceedings continue
McGraw currently faces lawsuits from former patients while the Army continues its investigation. Attempts to reach McGraw's attorneys for comment by phone and email were unsuccessful.
The case highlights ongoing concerns about military sexual trauma and the importance of support systems for survivors within the military healthcare system.
The Army provided 25 News a statement about those affected by the ongoing investigation.
“The Army is committed to providing comprehensive support to patients potentially impacted by these allegations. To that end, we have initiated patient notifications, established a dedicated call center, assigned Special Victims Counsel, and created a patient support line to ensure those affected have access to the resources and assistance they need during this investigation, which we are committed to conducting thoroughly. We encourage anyone with information related to this investigation to contact the Criminal Investigation Division.”
