A Long Island woman is suing a married doctor, accusing him of initiating an 18-month affair, promising to leave his wife, and then seeking legal action against her when she revealed their relationship to his spouse. The lawsuit, filed in Suffolk County Supreme Court, claims Dr. Keith Hoerning, 51, a family physician, promised Rosnana Kissoon, 39, a better life together before pursuing a restraining order.
Kissoon's attorney stated that Hoerning allegedly brought the "force of the law" down on Kissoon after she informed his wife, Nicole, about the affair. According to the lawsuit, this legal fallout resulted in Kissoon losing her job at a healthcare facility, requiring counseling, and suffering emotional distress. Her attorney asserted that Kissoon did nothing wrong other than having a relationship with Hoerning.
Kissoon alleges the affair began in late 2024 when Hoerning approached her at a Long Island strip club and subsequently bombarded her with calls and texts. The relationship allegedly turned intimate in February 2025, and by October, they were reportedly seeing each other multiple times a week and communicating daily. Hoerning allegedly sent Kissoon messages professing love, promising to provide what she wanted, and indicated he would find a way for them to be together, along with sending her money.
According to the complaint, Hoerning's attorney sent Kissoon a cease-and-desist letter on May 15, 2026, demanding she stop contact and threatening federal prosecution if she did not destroy evidence. However, the lawsuit claims Hoerning resumed contact two days later, sending Kissoon a family photograph via WhatsApp. He allegedly sent further messages on May 24, 2026, expressing desire and anticipation of seeing her.
Two days after those messages, on May 26, 2026, Kissoon allegedly called Hoerning's wife to inform her of the affair. The following evening, Hoerning reportedly went to a Suffolk County police precinct to have Kissoon arrested. The doctor's attorney stated that Hoerning claimed Kissoon had threatened to hire individuals to harm him and his family, including his wife.
Kissoon is seeking over $1 million in damages, alleging that Hoerning and his wife engaged in a coordinated campaign against her after she exposed the affair. Hoerning's attorney dismissed the lawsuit as "filled with lies" and asserted that the couple possesses text messages and voice recordings to substantiate their claim that the situation was an extortion plot.
