Dr. Ricardo Cruciani, a once-prominent neurologist, was found guilty Friday of sexually abusing patients while treating them with pain medications.
The doctor had denied the allegations. His attorney, Fred Sosinsky, said Friday there would be an appeal.
Prosecutors alleged Cruciani groomed vulnerable patients by overprescribing pain killers, sometimes to treat serious injuries from car wrecks and other accidents. Six women testified the sexual abuse often occurred behind closed doors during appointments in 2013 at a Manhattan medical center, where the doctor would expose himself and demand sex.
