Medical Malpractice: When Doctors Harm Instead Of Help

Medical malpractice refers to when a doctor or another health care practitioner provides substandard care that leads to patient harm. Some examples of the most common types of medical malpractice claims that we handle include:

  • Diagnostic errors: Misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis can lead to incorrect or delayed treatment, harming the patient.
  • Surgical errors: Mistakes during a surgical procedure. This could be operating on the wrong body part or leaving tools within the victim.
  • Birth injuries: Negligence during the pre-natal process, childbirth or post-partum that injure the mother or the newborn.
  • Anesthesia errors: Mistakes made during the administration of anesthesia can lead to severe injury or death.
  • Medication errors: Incorrect medication, dosage or administration that causes adverse reactions and complications.
  • Failure to treat: When a doctor fails to provide appropriate treatment for a diagnosed condition, it can result in worsening conditions or complications.

Understanding these types of malpractice can help you recognize if you or a loved one has been a victim of medical negligence and know the steps to take after a surgical error in a hospital.

The Elements Of A Medical Malpractice Case

Not every unfavorable outcome indicates medical malpractice. To prove a medical malpractice case, you must have several criteria. These include:

  • Duty of care: The doctor, nurse, hospital or another party owed a duty of care to the patient.
  • Breach of standard of care: The provider breached this duty by failing to provide an adequate standard of care.
  • Causation: The breach directly caused injury or harm to the patient.
  • Damages: The patient suffered actual damages, such as physical, emotional or financial harm, due to the provider’s negligence.

Expert testimonies often play a crucial role in establishing these elements. These testimonies help demonstrate how the standard of care was breached and how it led to the patient’s injuries.

The Devastating Impact Of Medical Malpractice On Patients

Medical malpractice can have devastating effects on patients and their families. The physical pain and suffering can be immense. Emotional trauma can linger long after the incident. Financial burdens from medical bills, lost wages and ongoing care can be overwhelming.

The legal process of pursuing a medical malpractice claim typically begins with an initial consultation. During this consultation, we will review your case and determine the best course of action. From there, we will gather evidence, consult with medical experts, and file a claim on your behalf. Possible outcomes include settlements or court verdicts that provide compensation for your losses.

Having a knowledgeable lawyer by your side can make all the difference. We will guide you through each step, ensuring you understand your rights and options. Our goal is to help you achieve the best possible outcome.
