EXPERT AFFIDAVIT DID NOT DEMONSTRATE, PRIMA FACIE, THAT DEFENDANT DOCTORS DID NOT DEPART FROM GOOD AND ACCEPTED PRACTICE, DEFENDANTS’ MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT IN THIS MEDICAL MALPRACTICE ACTION SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN GRANTED (SECOND DEPT).

The Second Department, reversing Supreme Court, determined the expert affidavit submitted by defendant emergency room defendants was insufficient to eliminate a question of fact whether the doctors departed from good and accepted medical practice. Plaintiff alleged his sports related injury was not correctly diagnosed in the emergency room:

The plaintiff … submitted an affirmation from an expert, a physician certified in general surgery, who opined that the plaintiff had presented to the emergency room on October 2, 2013, with symptoms of compartment syndrome and that the moving defendants departed from the accepted standard of care by failing to perform adequate testing and diagnose the compartment syndrome, from which the plaintiff was suffering at that time.

… [T]he moving defendants failed to establish, prima facie, that the emergency room defendants did not depart from good and accepted standards of medical care, or that any such departure was not a proximate cause of the plaintiff's injuries. The moving defendants' expert merely recounted the treatment rendered and opined in a conclusory manner that such treatment did not represent a departure from good and accepted medical practice … . Kelly v Rosca, 2018 NY Slip Op 05922, Second Dept 8-29-18
