More details to this question:
I am fairly new to Pennsylvania but have already had an experience with a doctor that I think has caused me to have a heart attack in October 2019. My primary doctor took me off of klonopin cold Turkey after being on it medically supervised since 2002.

it is improper to discontinue this drug in the manner you have suggested.  This conduct substantially increased the chances of an severity of the anticipated complications. I would have to learn more details in order to determine whether the claim would merit further investigation. You should obtain a copy of the prescribing doctor's office record and a copy of the record where you were treated. If you have those records in hand a lawyer in your jurisdiction experienced in handling medical malpractice claims should be willing to investigate the matter on your behalf
