- The lawsuit states that after both doctors reviewed CT scans that Dr. Hershcovitch had ordered, Dr. Cohen falsely told Shiblak that her CT scans indicated extensive sinus disease that would require her to have a sinus surgery procedure.
- Then, on January 11, 2021, Shiblak received a nose job and unnecessary sinus surgery from Dr. Cohen with the assistance of Dr. Hershcovitch.
- Following the procedure, Dr. Cohen reportedly recorded false statements in his operative notes, including that Shiblak had undergone conservative therapy.
- We are concerned that other patients may have been recommended unnecessary procedures by Dr. Cohen or Dr. Hershcovitch and seek to correct that potential harm.
