A wealthy Park Avenue cardiologist and his wife are having an art attack — because their insurance company refuses to reimburse them for $1.5 million in stolen artworks, according to new court papers.

Dr. Philip and Jamila Weintraub — longtime art lovers who have amassed “a multi-million-dollar collection of over one thousand items” — gripe that dealing with their insurance company to recoup their losses has been “hellish,” according to a Manhattan Supreme Court lawsuit filed Monday.

The New York City couple had insured their homes — and their roughly $7 million art and antiquities collection — with Chubb since 1990, “paying substantial premiums and renewing the policy each year,” the court documents say.

Then Philip — who rotated the artworks between the couple’s city apartment, his Park Avenue office and their “country home” — discovered in August 2019 that a storage room in their getaway pad had been rummaged through and multiple works stolen, the court papers say. 

Philip — “a lifelong passionate collector, dealer and connoisseur of antiquities and fine arts” — reported the theft to local police a few days later, the suit says. By November, the cops told him they “hit a dead end” and didn’t think they’d be able to get his art back, the filing explains.

So the Weintraubs filed a claim with Chubb, a subsidiary of the Great Northern Insurance Company, in November 2019 for the loss of roughly 16 pieces worth $1,499,808, the suit says.

The company would ultimately decline to cover the stolen works this past July — but only after putting “plaintiffs through a hellish claims process,” the court papers allege.

The Weintraubs say they spent “dozens if not hundreds of hours” recreating documentation to submit to the insurance company for each work over the years, after it “cavalierly” told the couple it had “discarded” the records, the suit claims.

“Although defendant strung plaintiffs along for twenty months, plaintiffs fully cooperated and provided the requested information and a detailed inventory of the loss,” the filing charges.

Then when the couple finally completed the claim process months later, after delays from the coronavirus pandemic and Philip’s recovery from a head injury, Great Northern still rejected their claim — on a pretext that the Weintraubs filed too late, the court papers allege.

“When defendant could not find a fraud or other basis to deny the claim, defendant in bad faith denied coverage based on pretextual claims of late notice of claim,” the suit charges.

A Chubb and Great Northern rep told The Post on Tuesday that the companies don’t comment on pending litigation.
