Re: Complaints
I don't if you are referring to an act of malpractice or not. If you are, then a lawsuit may be appropriate. You can also report misconduct of doctors and nurses to the Office of Professional Discipline (for the nurse) and the OPMD for the doctor. See the website for the NYS Dept. of Health.

In order to advise you properly, you need to specify the nature of your complaint; are you claiming negligence, medical malpractice, infliction of emotional distress, etc.
If you wish, you can e-mail me or call my office with specific facts.
