New Jersey Doctor Accused of Poking Girl With Screwdriver

NEWARK, N.J.-- New Jersey regulators have suspended the license of a northern New Jersey physician accused of poking a 13-year-old child more than 100 times with a screwdriver, causing bruises and small cuts.
The state Board of Medical Examiners announced the action Monday against Dr. Sylvia Lee of Emerson, an allergist who practiced in Old Bridge.
Lee was arrested at her home on July 3 on charges of aggravated assault and child endangerment. The alleged victim was identified only as a 13-year-old female. The complaint does not specify the child's relationship with Lee.
Police say Lee jabbed the child with the flathead screwdriver in a dispute over household chores.
An after-hours message was left Monday for Lee's attorney, Jay J. Friedrich of Ridgewood.
Why would they portray this as professional misconduct if it was about household chores? And she's an allergist and her default punishment is JABBING SOMEONE?!!?!? She must do that all day when she does testing and allergy shots! Even if she hadn't had her license suspended would you want to go to an allergist who LIKES POKING PEOPLE???????

that is the craziest thing. but if it is a domestic dispute can they revoke her licsence?
I think you can, morals clauses and things like that.
It allows them to suspend the crazy people who like to poke people, and keeps them away fromt eh needles....
