A Mount Sinai Hospital technician — responsible for running complicated equipment during open-heart surgeries — watched porn on his smartphone as patients lay with their lives in the balance just inches away, according to a bombshell lawsuit by former cardiovascular tech Sandra Morris.
“I once saw him watching a [video] of a woman riding a man,” Morris, 37, said of Ahmed Cercioglu, whom she names in her Manhattan Supreme Court lawsuit.
“Another time, I saw him watching a guy [having sex with] a girl and the girl [giving the man oral sex],” Morris claimed of Cercioglu, her former boss.
Both she and Cercioglu toiled as cardiovascular perfusionists — techs responsible for setting up and running the sophisticated heart-and-lung machine that keeps patients alive while surgeons repair their organs.
She said Cercioglu’s porn habit was so “commonplace [in the operating room] that other perfusionists routinely joked about his behavior,” according to the lawsuit she filed last week.
