help patients who have cancer from being injured by doctors and prevent hospitals from defending those doctors.

Created by B.C. on January 29, 2014

I was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2012. The doctor, John Russin, who performed the surgery created a full ventral hernia in my abdomen (my entire abdomen was herniated).
All the specialist I consulted with stated it was guaranteed based on how the surgery was done (wrong sutures & too much pressure on abdominal sack).
I asked Bassett Hospital in Cooperstown to prevent Dr. John Russin from performing this surgery on other women. I didn't want anyone harmed.
The president of Bassett Hospital, Dr. LeCates stated that Dr. John Russin would continue to perform this surgery!
I have enormous medical and personal bills as a result of this surgery and don't want any other women hurt by this surgeon, Dr. John Russin, or this hospital, Bassett Hospital in Cooperstown, NY
