What can do after our family doctor seduced me?

Question Details:Our family relocated from UT to TX, and it was a life-changing move. I became depressed, suicidal, despondent. I decided to seek medical attention. Upon my initial visit with this doctor, I let him know all of my feelings. I was crying and upset. He put both hands on my shoulders and assured me everything would be OK and that he wouldn't let anything happen to me. He perscribed anti-depressants for me. I still wasn't feeling better and had another visit with him. I told him I wasn't sleeping and with my husband out of town I was scared. More meds with an invite to his house. We had sex.

You should consult an attorney in your state who is experienced with professional malpractice cases. Depending on the specific facts of your case, you may have a case against the doctor for taking advantage of you with medications and having an improper relationship with you. The doctor could also be in trouble with the state medical board. But an experienced attorney can advise you better after reviewing your case.
