What does a patient do when it is the doctor that is abusing them?

Who does a patient have to turn to when the very person we are sopose to be able to trust is actually the one who is doing the abusing?

Update:

And the police and detectives refuse to help? And the police and detectives refuse to even file a complaint? And the medical review board refuses to do anything also?

Update 2:

And people want to know WHY people go to attorney's for help when there doesn't seem to be anyone else willing to even listen? I just don't understand!

    Take a tape recorder in and catch the doctor on it ,or change your doctor. Try to find other patients the doctor may have abused.

    tell a detective what's been happening. sometimes they set up a sting to trap him. go to the precinct that is closest to the doctor's office if you can. ask to speak to a female detective if you need to.

    I would start with law enforcement, and they'll know where to take it from there.
