Long Island doc performed unnecessary surgery on drivers, passenger in alleged staged crash: lawsuit
A Deer Park orthopedic surgeon performed unnecessary surgeries on drivers and a passenger involved in alleged staged motor vehicle crashes, according to a federal lawsuit filed last week by FedEx.
Dr. Alexios Apazidis, who has an office in Westbury and lives in St. James, has previously been accused of copying and pasting 43 virtually identical surgical reports.
The RICO suit comes as Gov. Kathy Hochul has launched a crackdown on staged vehicle crashes that she contends cause drivers’ insurance premiums to escalate
