Medical Malpractice Issues

Posted on May 16, 2017 in Uncategorized

If you practice in the field of medical malpractice, you’re bound to get some abnormal cases from time to time. I once had a patient whose physician had sewn up him up during a procedure and left equipment inside of him, including surgical sponges. Doctors, when they enter medicine, are held to what’s called a “standard of care,” a notion that they that must act responsibly to avoid harming patients. Each state has its own metrics for what constitutes malpractice and are typically settled in civil courts of law. Unfortunately, mistakes are going to be made in any profession, and that includes medicine. Medical malpractice lawyers are trained to evaluate individual cases and hold responsible physicians who are negligent. For patients who think they can hold accountable physicians who have botched procedures, I suggest they seek legal counsel. A successful case can help you finance future corrective procedures you may need. If you feel like anything has potentially gone wrong with your procedure, don’t be afraid to get a second medical opinion to ensure that nothing is awry.
