Facts: MA received a complaint from a former patient. The patient alleged that MA injured her back and side during a session.
Outcome: The firm provided a robust response including all medical records from the patient’s file showing that MA only met with the patient on 2 minor occasions and that the patient’s issues were ongoing over the course of the over 1-year period that she sought services. The firm provided argument that there was no way to prove causation based on the evidence and based on the patient’s own description of the pain and the location of the pain. After a review of the evidence the Board dismissed the case.
