A 31 year-old woman from Harlem, NY is suing her doctor for informing her she tested positive for HIV -- because she didn't want to know. True story. The unidentified woman was feeling ill after gastric bypass surgery in September 2011, so she went to Dr Pavel Yutsis. He did some blood work and found she had low levels of B12 and her white blood cell count was also extremely low, so he suggested she get tested for HIV. The woman declined, but Dr Yutsis ordered the test anyway. The woman claims he violated New York state law because he tested her without consent and delivered the results.
