If a pharmacist, doctor or hospital neglects to maintain the level of professional responsibility that is expected and required, tragedy can result. This type of negligence can cause the victim to suffer a premature death or a catastrophic injury.
Medical malpractice cases we handle may involve:
- Surgical mishaps (leaving items inside the patient)
- Giving the individual the wrong medication or the wrong dose of medication
- Delayed treatment
- Premature discharge
- Failure to treat and/or diagnose a life-threatening condition
- Unnecessary surgical procedure
- Performing the wrong surgery
- Not following up after surgery and/or on test results
