The doctor finds a sympathetic ear in Detective John Munch (Richard Belzer).ĭoctor Solwey returned a year later when SVU was investigating a stolen body parts ring involving illegal transplants. Her own struggles led Solwey to create a blog which encourages victims of chronic illnesses to end their suffering through suicide. She is a former in-vitro fertilization specialist who has spent much of her life in pain as a result of Alport's syndrome, a disease which has left her needing a new kidney. We first meet Amy Solwey in 'Painless' (5.22).
