  • Quackery – this is the impersonation of a medically knowledgeable individual, or pretending to be a doctor in order to provide fraudulent services for monetary gain.
  • Unnecessary surgeries – Unscrupulous doctors can recommend and advise surgeries and/or other medical procedures that are unnecessary, yet leave the victim in a state of pain and disability in some cases.
  • Unnecessary medication – Another means for unscrupulous doctors and health care providers is to prescribe unnecessary medication.
