Events of Medical Malpractice Can be Difficult to Recognize.
A Medical Malpractice Lawyer Can Help.
 An
obvious example of medical malpractice occurs when the doctor
operates on the wrong extremity. A medical malpractice attorney
can help you determine if your case warrants further action.
Doctors can also commit malpractice by failing to order
diagnostic tests which would reveal an ongoing medical
condition, thus delaying its recognition and causing the patient
greater harm. Our medical malpractice lawyers have seen examples
of areas of potential medical malpractice including:
-
Failure to
-
order indicated medications resulting in
increased injury or death
-
properly monitor the patient’s condition
resulting in increased injury or death
-
recognize obvious signs and symptoms that
would have lead to a swifter diagnosis and possible cure
-
listen to the patient’s verbal complaints
resulting in delayed diagnosis and, increased injury or
death
-
recognize, repair and treat an unintended
injury during a surgical procedure resulting in increased
complications
-
refer the patient to an expert in the area
of the patient’s illness resulting in increased injury or
death
-
Ordering inappropriate medications resulting
in increased injury or death
-
Unintentional injury during a surgical
procedure due to failure to identify and preserve important
veins, arteries and organs
-
Permitting unauthorized persons (often medical
residents) to perform invasive procedures without the
patient’s permission, whether or not there is personal injury
 If
you or a loved one feels you’ve been the victim of medical
malpractice, our medical malpractice lawyers can help you
recover money damages.
