Unprofessional conduct by physicians or other healthcare professionals occurs across the country at an alarming rate. Patients who make an occasional doctors visit, or patients with serious illnesses who seeks the treatment of a variety of specialists are at risk. Many doctors treat patients in an unacceptable manner, violating the standards that they are required to practice under.

While people are aware of many forms of unethical conduct, such as physical or sexual abuse in New York, many types of unprofessional conduct remain unknown to patients, such as:

• Doctors allowing unlicensed persons to practice medicine
• Felony conviction
• Inability to recognize general symptoms
• Inaccurate medical record keeping
• Performing procedures that the doctor has not been trained in
• Medication errors and prescribing without cause
• Use of illegal substances or procedures
• Working under the influence of drugs or alcohol

If you have experienced any of the above listed examples of unprofessional conduct by a physician or other healthcare worker, you may have grounds to file a lawsuit.

In the United States, physicians are well respected for the important work they do, including the prevention, management, and curing of serious illnesses and diseases. When doctors abuse their power and choose to provide innocent patients with unprofessional conduct they should be held liable for their actions. In certain cases a doctor’s who has placed patients in danger will have his or her ability to practice medicine suspended. Other forms of discipline that a doctor who has been accused of unprofessional conduct may face include monetary fines, probation, practice restrictions, and mandatory continuing education courses. It is your right as a patient to file a lawsuit against any medical professional who has conducted him or herself in an unprofessional manner.
