The correct diagnosis of a serious medical condition often means the difference between life and death for a patient. Conversely, an incorrect diagnosis or the failure to diagnose a medical condition can have dire consequences for patients, including prolonged illness, unnecessary pain and suffering, and even wrongful death. It is the responsibility of medical professionals to exercise the proper standard of care when treating all patients, and when doctors, nurses, and laboratory technicians are negligent in their care patients and their families suffer. The attorneys at the Personal injury law firms of Allen Law Firm and Mark & Associates, P.C. have a long-standing record of success litigating on behalf of patients who suffer unnecessarily as a result of misdiagnosis. We work with leading medical experts to determine if a misdiagnosis occurred, then fight to recover compensation for victims and their families.
Some of the most common conditions that doctors fail to correctly diagnose are heart disease, breast cancer, and colon cancer. When an incorrect diagnosis is made, patients can be subjected to unnecessary medications and surgical procedures. Furthermore, an incorrect diagnosis allows a patient’s true condition to remain unchecked for longer than it should be, which could lead to permanent disability or even untimely death.
When a doctor makes an erroneous diagnosis of a patient’s condition, the patient is often subjected to improper treatment and a delayed treatment of his or her true malady. Some of the most commonly misdiagnosed conditions our medical malpractice attorneys see include:
If you or your loved has been improperly diagnosed with a medical treatment, or if you believe a medical professional demonstrated negligence by failing to diagnose a serious condition, our attorneys can help you pursue justice. While no amount of money can make up for a compromise to a victim’s health, financial compensation can help families seek proper treatment and focus on healing instead of worrying about financial burdens.
