Valley Stream Chiropractor Charged With Forcibly Touching Patient
NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) -- A Long Island chiropractor is accused of inappropriately using a massaging device on a patient.
On March 23, Douglas Dukofsky was giving a 21-year-old woman a chiropractic exam at Valley Stream Chiropractic Wellness Center.
During the exam, Dukofsky was using a massaging device on the victim's legs when he proceeded to moved it across her genital area two times, police said.
The victim's mother, who was also in the room, grew concerned and demanded that Dukofsky stop the exam, police said.
The victim left the office and called police. Dukofsky was arrested on Sunday at his Merrick home.
Dukofsky has been charged with forcible touching and will be arraigned on Monday, March 25 at First District Court in Hempstead.
