Ordered that the order is affirmed, with costs'
The requisite elements of proof in a medical malpractice action are a deviation or departure from good and accepted medical practice and that such departure was a proximate cause of the plaintiffs injuries ( see Rebozo v Wilen, 41 AD3d 457, 458). The defendant Mary J. Spinelli, an obstetrician/ gynecologist (hereinafter OB/GYN), met her prima facie burden of establishing her entitlement to judgment as a matter of law by submitting her own affidavit which demonstrated that she did not depart from good and accepted medical practice in her treatment of the plaintiff Joann a Tuorto (hereinafter the plaintiff mother), and that her treatment was not a proximate cause of the infant plaintiffs injuries ( see Alvarez v Prospect Hosp., 68 NY2d 320, 324; Rebozo v Wilen, 41 AD3d at 458).
However, in opposition, the plaintiffs submitted affirmations from an expert OB/GYN and an expert pediatrician/ neonatologist, which were sufficient to raise triable issues of fact as to whether Spinelli departed from good and accepted medical practice in her treatment of the plaintiff mother and whether such departure was a proximate cause of the infant plaintiffs injuries ( see Roca v Perel, 51 AD3d 757, 759; Rosenman v Shrestha, 48 AD3d 781, 784; Feinberg v Feit, 23 AD3d 517, 519). Accordingly, Spinelli's motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint insofar as asserted against her was properly denied.
