issue to encourage un-needed surgeries and therapy?
I have a Neuro Cargiologist that "apparently " has adjusted my pacemaker to start shocking me in order to scare me into and expensive operation called Ablation.
I have pretty good evidence this is going on and I am working to trap this guy at his game. I had been doing fine up until I saw him and told him so. I felt I was getting better. He told me he doubted it and acted insulted that I wanted to take less drugs and use food supplements to support my therapies. He adjusted my pacemaker at that time but led me to believe he had not. I found this out by speaking with his nurse. Since that visit, 7 days later I started having these horrific shocks from the pacemaker. These "therapy" shocks are very painful. I think this guy is trying to scare me into another operation and into insecurity in order to line his own pocket. If I can prove intentional abuse of this pacemaker system by this doctor how can I put this jerk out of business?

I am getting other opinion and also getting the pacemaker reset to the old setting wherein I had never been shocked and was showing signs of improved health. I think I have good documentation in writing of all this. This guy needs to be called on the carpet for this once the info is all assembled, if indeed my accusation is correct. Who do I bring this to the attention of to get the best effect against this doctor. I don't imagine I could sue but he should be stopped or at least scared.

I really think that you should find a new doctor. If you are in the US, contact the American Medical Association about your concerns.

I'd be more concerned about finding a new doctor and getting a pacemaker that does not require regular adjustments. If what you say is true, and it sounds quite outlandish, then you should also contact the pacemaker manufacturer and determine if adjustment and shock therapy is consistent with the product, after all, if you do end up bringing a lawsuit, you would include the manufacturer as a defendant. Sounds like you went to the wrong doctor in the first instance. If you don't know who the pacemaker manufacturer is, it should be written on the back of the pacemaker itself. Good luck with self-removal.

Get a private investigator to check out the doctor. Also contact the state medical board with a second opinion they will act on it for you.

Report him to the state medical board, and if you have enough evidence that he has done this, report him to the local District Attorney for battery.
If you are thinking about suing for malpractice, then be careful of what you accuse him of doing. Many insurance policies will not cover intentional bad acts.

Firstly, for legal reasons I cannot answer your question and regrettably, I MUST OFFER THE SAME ADVICE TO ANYONE WHO READS THIS QUESTION. Anyone who offers advise on this issue could unwittingly be dragged into a forthcoming trial. If they are not qualified in giving you any such advice, this could actually jeopardize your case.
All I can say is take legal advice on this and DON'T speak to anyone who you think will back you in a court of law...if you see what I mean!

If you live in florida I don't think it is possible to make the medical community accountable. I was intentionally hurt and wrote to the florida department of health and they did nothing but take his word for everything. Lawyers told me that unless I'm crippled for life or dead there is nothing they can do.

Any reputable doctor would always welcome what's called a "second opinion".
Get one!
