Background: Sexual misconduct by health care clinicians is a type of sexual abuse with significant consequences for patients, although there is limited literature examining the experience of male survivors.

Aim: To examine the effects of sexual misconduct experienced by male patients during young adulthood by the same healthcare clinician.

Methods: Using BERTopic modeling, a machine learning-based topic modeling method, we analyzed the narratives from records in a class-action lawsuit involving men aged 18-22 at the time of the abuse, who provided narratives years later that included reflections on their experiences over time.

Results: Three themes were described by the men: "Violation of Trust in Clinical Settings," "Breaking Silence Through Public Disclosure," and "Long-term Psychological and Relational Consequences."

Conclusion: There is an enduring psychological impact of clinician sexual misconduct on male survivors, and a subsequent need for trauma-informed, gender-sensitive forensic nursing care in every patient encounter.
