Des Moines Register: Des Moines plastic surgeon Ronald Bergman has routinely subjected female employees and a colleague to vulgar insults and sexual boasts, according to three lawsuits filed in the past two years. Bergman, 72, has been a prominent Des Moines physician for decades. His clinic is in an ornate, historic house, called “the Bergman Mansion,” on Grand Avenue just west of downtown. Bergman’s attorney said Bergman denies the allegations.
