Psychiatrist accused of misconduct

By: Web Staff

UTICA, N.Y. -- The state health commissioner has pulled the license of a Utica psychiatrist.

Anthony Nappi, 80, has been charged with 46 incidents of medical misconduct with 11 different patients. The list of charges are extensive and the Department of Health says Dr. Nappi inappropriately touched female patients, made inappropriate remarks, failed to perform patient assessments or order laboratory tests and breached patient confidentiality.

A hearing on the charges is set for next week. Until then, his license is suspended, meaning he cannot care for patients.
