New York City gynecologist Dr. Joon Song filed a $1 million defamation lawsuit against a former patient after she posted a review on Yelp and other doctor review sites detailing how he'd overcharged her and tried to "scare" her into a second visit by giving her a "false diagnosis."

Michelle Levine took to Yelp, Healthgrades and RateMDs.com to criticize Song, an OBGYN, over a major financial discrepancy from a visit in July 2017. Levine told Newsweek that Song's office attempted to "scare" her into a second checkup after billing her for unnecessary medical procedures and then wittholding information over the phone to force her to come back in for even more billable procedures.
