Washington University’s internal review found Reed’s allegations of substandard care causing adverse outcomes unsubstantiated, while recommending stronger consent and custody-documentation procedures. It reported 1,165 patients since June 2018 and six adolescent chest surgeries by university physicians since 2018. The university reviewed its own center; this was not independent confirmation. Patient counts and treatment details appear on pages 2–3 and recommendations on page 4.
