Rogers v. Schuyler
158 A.D.2d 318, 551 N.Y.S.2d 5, 1990 N.Y. App. Div. LEXIS 1230
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York·Decided February 8, 1990·Published·Cited by 5 cases
Opinion
Plaintiff sustained severe injuries to her jaw, face and neck when she fell from an examining table while giving a blood sample. She contends that defendant physician was negligent in failing to secure her to the table.
We agree that a medical malpractice hearing is unwarranted under these circumstances since the acts complained of would constitute simple negligence and not malpractice requiring medical expert opinion. (Bleiler v Bodnar, 65 NY2d 65 [1985].) Concur—Kupferman, J. P., Asch, Ellerin and Smith, JJ.
