A Long Island stripper is suing a wealthy married doctor, accusing him of promising to leave his wife for her — just to seek a restraining order when she told his spouse about their alleged affair.
Rosnana Kissoon, 39, accused 51-year-old Dr. Keith Hoerning of trying to get her arrested after their 18-month affair fell apart earlier this year, according to a lawsuit filed in Suffolk County Supreme Court.
Kissoon is seeking damages that could exceed $1 million — which Hoerning, a family physician and father of two, dismissed as a callous extortion plot that followed threats to harm his family.
“This is an issue that I have run across several times. A man makes an error and is blackmailed. This stripper is different because she had the audacity to file a lawsuit, pushing the blackmail to another level,” his attorney, Bruce Barket, told the Daily Mail.
Kissoon accused the doctor, who lives in a $900,000 home in Greenlawn, Suffolk County, of instigating the affair and promising to start a new life with her, before bringing the force of the law down on her after she told his 34-year-old wife Nicole about it.
“It’s not just that she thought she was going to have a better life. She found out she wasn’t going to have that, and then Keith brought the whole legal system and judicial and police force on her,” Kissoon’s attorney, Michael Treanor, told the Daily Mail.
“She’s done nothing wrong but have a relationship with Mr. Hoerning,” he said, adding that the legal fallout had cost Kissoon her day job at a healthcare facility, forced her to seek counselling, and left her emotionally devastated.
The alleged affair began in late 2024 when Dr. Hoerning introduced himself to Kissoon at a Long Island strip club, before bombarding her with calls and text messages, according to the complaint.
It allegedly turned intimate in February 2025, and by late October, the pair were allegedly seeing each other multiple times a week and communicating every day, according to the filings.
In messages, Hoerning allegedly told Kissoon, “I love you,” “I will give you what you want,” and “I will find a way,” while also sending her money, according to the complaint.
“He had made promises to her that he was leaving her, and that they would have a happy life together,” Treanor said.
But on May 15, 2026, Kissoon was allegedly sent a cease-and-desist letter by Hoerning’s lawyer, demanding she stop contacting him and his family, and threatening her with federal criminal prosecution if she didn’t destroy evidence of their relationship.
Despite that, on May 17, Hoerning allegedly resumed contact with Kissoon, sending her a personal family photograph over WhatsApp, the complaint alleges.
On May 24, he allegedly messaged her again, writing “So hot! See u soon,” and “Miss u already,” according to the complaint.
Two days later, Kissoon called Hoerning’s wife to tell her about the alleged affair.
The following evening, Hoerning allegedly went to a Suffolk County police precinct, demanding to have Kissoon arrested.
The doctor claimed that Kissoon threatened to hire “goons” to “beat” him and his family and even “rip [his] wife’s … face off,” according to a sworn petition filed last month.
Kissoon is now seeking damages that could exceed $1 million as part of a lawsuit that accuses Hoerning and his wife of mounting a coordinated campaign against her after she exposed the alleged affair.
The Hoernings’ attorney claimed the lawsuit is “filled with lies,” and said the couple has text messages and voice recordings to prove that this was an extortion plot.
