Doctor Giovanni Miniello, 60, a gynecologist in the southern city of Bari, told a 33-year-old female patient that she appeared to have human papillomavirus (HPV) — a sexually transmitted virus that can cause cancer — even though her Pap smear test came back negative.

“I have saved many women from cancer. Everyone I contacted was negative after that,” he told the patient.
But the female patient, identified as Anna Maria, decided to contact the Italian newspaper; The Republic, alleged that Miniello had touched her breasts inappropriately. According to Maria, the doctor told her that he likes women with small breasts.
Maria was then surprised that the doctor had offered to have sex with her when she asked about the results of her pap smear test.
Maria next contacted the investigative news program “Le lene”, which hired an actress to pretend or play a patient.
Miniello told the undercover actress that she had “white spots” on her cervix, which indicated the presence of HPV. Again, the doctor offered to have sex with her, claiming that he would give her immunity because she had been vaccinated.
When the actress asked him about protection, doctors told him the condom would not allow him to benefit from his antibodies.
