Signs Of Medical Mistakes
It may come as a surprise to realize that medical malpractice happens more than you think. While we go to doctors to be treated and feel better, there are times when they fail to provide adequate care and it leads to the serious harm of patients. If you feel that a doctor made a mistake when diagnosing, treating, or performing surgery, we urge you to contact our dedicated medical mistake attorney as soon as possible. Here are signs that a medical mistake may have happened to you:
- Failure to order or correctly interpret lab results
- Recommending the wrong treatment plan
- Delayed or misdiagnosis
- Wrong medications prescribed (type and/or dosage)
- Botched surgery
- Misuse of anesthesia
- Prematurely discharging patient
- Unnecessary operations
- Items left inside body during surgery
- Failing to properly check on patient
- Ignoring patient’s questions or concerns
- Birth injury of mother and/or newborn
Getting A Second Opinion
Our team may suggest being examined by a doctor at another medical facility to see if there is a difference between what the initial doctor said and the second opinion physician. Medical malpractice may be concluded if there is a significant discrepancy between the first doctor’s diagnosis and the other. It is important that you get the medical attention you need for your health so that your condition does not continue to worsen. The reason that you may want to visit a doctor at a separate facility is to avoid bias from happening. Also, if that medical facility suspects that a medical malpractice case could be filed against them, they may attempt to alter or destroy crucial evidence. So if you can, please consult with us before sending in a complaint.
