How Many Children Does Dr. Quincy Fortier From HBO's Baby God Have?

A film featuring some of the children of Dr. Quincy Fortier was produced in 2020 called Baby God. It investigates the story of Fortier’s life, particularly his medical career, and examines the lives of the children whom he created with his unsuspecting patients. While there were a couple of cases brought against Fortier in the mid-1990s, many of his children didn’t discover that he was their father until decades later.

According to Women’s Health, one of those was Wendi Babst, a retired sheriff who is now an adjunct professor in Oregon. A man named Dr. Brad Gulko was born the same year as Babst. He became an engineer and scientist and later discovered that Fortier was his biological father. In 1949, Mike Otis was born to his mother, Dorthy, who reportedly was not even trying to conceive at the time and saw Fortier for a simple infection. Connie’s son whom she gave up for adoption, Jonathan Stenland, actually met his father/ adoptive grandfather who tried to explain away his conception as an accident.

There are three other children who appear in the film that Fortier raised himself. When his son Quincy Fortier Jr., was asked about his father, he referred to him as ‘crazy’ and a ‘pervert’ who molested him and his siblings. In contrast, one of his adoptive daughters denies the allegations, while the other simply says she doesn’t want to know. Right now the number of children who have discovered Dr. Quincy Fortier is their father is 24, but the true number is unknown.
