"A top heart doctor at the Palo Alto VA Hospital sexually harassed a subordinate employee, an investigation has found, but he says it was a consensual relationship."
"“Upon learning of the complaint against Dr. Giacomini in June of 2018, Stanford placed him on leave and relieved him of any responsibilities at the university,” said Stanford spokeswoman Julie Greicius. “As a result of the investigation’s findings, Dr. Giacomini was given the notice necessary to terminate his contract. During that period, he chose to retire. Dr. Giacomini did not resume any of his responsibilities at Stanford after being placed on leave in June 2018, and is no longer a Stanford faculty member.”"
