Dr. Richard C Blunk, MD

On October 26th 2012 I discovered Dr. Richard C. Blunk was using his position as my 3 daughters pediatrician to get my w...ife’s cell phone number and initiate an affair. He even had invited my wife and I on a double date to my favorite restaurant in Rock Island, IL and to a show at mine own comedy club in Rock Island.

On that date he continually ‘sexted’ my wife and made subtle passes at her until finally he followed her into the second floor women’s restroom of Blue Cat Brew Pub and began to make out with her while his wife and I waited feet away. Growing suspicious I walked in on them and discovered him with his hands all over my wife’s body and tongue down her throat.

I yelled and he ran out of the restroom and to the jukebox to act as if he were there the whole time. I took my wife’s hand in shock and walked her downstairs and inquired what was going on between them. She tried to deny everything despite the fact I saw them. I walked upstairs still in shock and wished him and his wife a good night.

After checking my wife’s phone, I discovered his rather forward messages of ‘I want to f*** you so bad right now! Anywhere. Anytime’. At that point I asked my wife for further explanation of her ‘friendship’ with our prized pediatrician. She explained that after a little small talk during our 17 month old daughter’s sick visit two weeks prior. He had asked her if she would like to hang out sometime because he and his wife don’t have too many friends in town since their move from Ohio.

The sad thing is, I forgave him on the doorstep of my family home the next day. I even hugged him and wished he and his wife a happy marriage. I said, ‘I hope that someday we all can put this behind us and find a way to be friends.’ Little did I know that the very next day he would call my wife at work for round two. This continued behind my back whilst my wife and I were in counselling or at least I was. He would call her at her office and arrange for the two of them to meet on Thursdays. Thursdays were his half days.

The two of them would meet at restaurants and coffee shops near hotels. Close to where his kids daycare was so he could pick them up right after they were finished. I discovered this because of my wifes increase in cash withdrawals from our checking account and a rather odd purchase she had made during the Christmas season. A Chicago Blackhawks Championship coffee mug. I knew ‘Rich’ was a huge Blackhawks hockey fan from our small talk from our little double date night. He grew up in Joliet and played hockey as a kid.

It was on Christmas eve that I finally got the courage to confront my wife with the evidence. She insisted that it was nothing more than 6 or 7 innocent kisses and playful flirting. Well, needless to say, I lost it. From that day forth I have not been the same. My doctors and psychiatrists say I’m suffering from PTSD. I lost my job due to constant panic attacks and depression on the job. My wife and I are still struggling to rebuild trust.

I have sought refuge in the psych ward of two hospitals since all of this madness. I write this now, as therapy. I want nothing more than to see this man lose his license and good standing with the American board of Pediatrics and to be forced to resign. Agree with me or not. I will have justice.

Sincerely,
