PLAINTIFF’S EXPERT’S AFFIDAVIT IN THIS MEDICAL MALPRACTICE ACTION DID NOT SPECIFICALLY ADDRESS DEFENDANT’S EXPERT’S OPINIONS, THEREBY WARRANTING SUMMARY JUDGMENT IN FAVOR OF DEFENDANT (FIRST DEPT).

The Frist Department determined plaintiff’s expert’s affidavit in this medical malpractice action was conclusory and did not address defendants’ expert’s opinions specifically. Therefore defendant’s motion for summary judgment was properly granted:

… [P]laintiff failed to raise an issue of fact. His expert, who is board certified in surgery and thoracic surgery, was qualified to render an opinion … . However, the opinion is conclusory and speculative and fails to address defendant’s expert’s opinions specifically … . In addition, in forming his opinion, plaintiff’s expert disregarded facts and medical evidence in the record, including a post-operative pathology report that indicated that plaintiff had a connective tissue disorder that put him at greater risk for developing serious complications if his aortic aneurysm were left untreated … . Akel v Gerardi, 2021 NY Slip Op 06792, First Dept 12-7-21​
