Gosh, your post brought up a lot of things for me. I understand how angry and wounded you must feel. I was sexually molested by a psychiatrist many years ago, and I think if he were still alive I would want to do something to hurt him. Fortunately I don't have that option.
I think you should be very careful about having a face to face confrontation with this pdoc. He is in a position of strength in the relationship between you two. I am sure he will deny any mistakes or negligence, and you will end up feeling doubly abused. If you must do something, do it in writing or via a third party.
Sorry, I may sound dogmatic, but I think the important thing is to protect you against someone who has already demonstrated his ability to hurt you. Don't let him do it again.
