Can you sue a doctor in a civil suit if the statute of limitations for malpractice has expired and once it has expired is there any legal recourse?

The clock starts when you discover the malpractice. So once you discover it, you have two years from that date. Their defense will try to prove that you knew it as of a certain date, and you will need to defend against that. If they cannot prove you knew as of a certain date, you can still sue.
