Mt. Sinai doc offered to name hospital’s women’s floor after Jeffrey Epstein in return for donation: report

A top Mount Sinai doctor and longtime pal of Jeffrey Epstein once offered to name a wing at the facility “The Epstein Floor for Women” if he helped fund it — in what would have been just another donation among the hundreds of thousands of dollars he gave the prestigious hospital.

Dr. Eva Dubin, a former Swedish beauty queen who dated Epstein in the 1980s, pitched him the multi-million dollar proposal over email in 2013 — five years after he’d been convicted of soliciting an underage girl for sex and registered as a sex offender, according to the New York Times.

“The floor would have a naming opportunity, for example The Epstein Floor for Women, if so desired,” Dubin wrote in the email, where she pitched Epstein the $5 million project to create a relaxation and recuperation center for women recovering from cancer treatments.

The email exchange was just one of several released in the Department of Justice’s dump of files related to the pedophile financier that revealed twisted ties to Mount Sinai, and numerous other elite doctors and medical offices who appeared to bend rules to accommodate his bizarre requests, the Times reported.

Epstein donated more than $375,000 to Mount Sinai, largely to the breast cancer center Dubin founded, and also referred at least two women who were then appointed to positions at the hospital.

And the convicted creep repeatedly reached out to Dubin with medical requests to refer various young women for the likes of pelvic and breast exams, emails show.

“Eva will organize p—y doctor,” Epstein wrote to a Russian woman in 2012, after she’d asked him for permission to have sex with someone other than him if she used a condom — which Epstein forbade unless she first saw a gynecologist.

Dr. Dubin — who was not cc’d in the thread of bizarre emails — later provided the woman contacts for two doctors, according to the Times.

A representative for Dubin denounced Epstein’s behavior and said she “never witnessed, suspected or had any knowledge of Mr. Epstein’s criminal conduct.”

“Each referral was made in good faith and without any awareness of wrongdoing,” the representative told the Times.

The Post wasn’t immediately able to reach Dubin’s spokesperson.

Mount Sinai also called Epstein “abhorrent, reprehensible” in a statement to The Post and said it was investigating all alleged ties he had to the hospital.

However, the incident with the Russian woman was just one of numerous bizarre interactions Epstein had with doctors and hospitals.

Months after the gynecologist referral, Epstein emailed Dubin to explain that the woman had fallen off an ATV at his private Caribbean island and suffered a severe gash to her head that needed stitches.

“Can you organize thanks,” Epstein wrote Dubin, who responded that Mount Sinai plastic surgeon Jess Ting was “standing by.”

Dr. Ting went to Epstein’s Manhattan townhouse a day later and gave the woman 35 stitches while she was “laid out on the dining room table,” Epstein later told an assistant, according to the files.

A photo even appeared to capture that procedure — with a man resembling Ting bent over the woman in his townhouse.

Ting later received a $50,000 donation from Epstein for breast cancer research, made other house calls for him, and even visited the shady financier’s private island with his family, according to the DOJ files.

The plastic surgeon told the Times he never knew anything egregious that Epstein was up to.

“Mr. Epstein represents the very worst of human nature, and I deeply regret having had any association with him,” Ting said.

But other doctors from other establishments were also caught up in Epstein’s nefarious web.

He worked with private doctors to get treatment for his own gonorrhea infections on the sly and circumvent Florida disclosure laws, emails show, and he repeatedly sent young women to offices to receive the likes of dental work and plastic surgery.

Oftentimes Epstein spoke on behalf of the women he was referring for medical help, with doctors liaising directly with him about what he wanted done with the patients.

In one such incident, Columbia University’s Dr. Thomas Magnani — fired in February after DOJ files indicated he bent the rules to get Epstein’s girlfriend into the Ivy League medical school — asked the pedophile what kind of tooth work he wanted done on a woman he’d sent to him.

“He doesn’t know how much work you want done on this girl,” Epstein’s assistant said in an email, relaying the dentist’s message.

Epstein agreed to pay for just one of numerous procedures recommended, and would eventually donate $50,000 to the dental school.

At other times, women seemed not to even know what procedures Epstein was sending them to receive.

“He will send you to his partner that takes fat from your ass and puts in your breasts,” Epstein wrote to one woman who asked for clarification.
