When Misdiagnosis Results In Medical Malpractice
Doctors are trained to carefully review their patients’ medical conditions. In every case, they should consider all possibilities, conducting all appropriate tests (including X-rays and lab tests) and bringing in specialists if necessary. When doctors fail to take these steps, they could misdiagnose or completely fail to diagnose a serious medical condition. That condition could worsen because of the missed opportunity to treat it. If you believe that you or a loved one has suffered because of a doctor’s failure to properly diagnose your condition, we can help.

Misdiagnosis Happens All The Time
The unfortunate reality is that misdiagnosis happens all the time. Fortunately, in many cases, the medical condition is either minor, or it is caught in time so that the delay in treatment has no significant impact. However, there are cases, particularly emergency room cases, in which the delay in treatment means serious damage or even wrongful death. In these cases, the victim has the right to take action. When we take your case we will find out why the mistake happened. It is likely that this could save another person from suffering from the same error.
