Signs of Surgical Malpractice
Unfortunately, everyone can make mistakes, this includes doctors and surgeons. If you suspect medical malpractice it is always best to consult with an attorney and get their professional opinion. A Miami surgical error attorney will also investigate your complaint, give you valuable advice and follow up with you about your case.
When you visit your doctor for treatment, you are looking to get better, not worse. There are signs that you can look for, if you suspect malpractice. Your body will speak to you in a way that is not easy to ignore. Here are several signs you can look for.
Errors During the Surgery
These types of errors can range from tools not being sterilized properly, leaving foreign objects inside a patient’s body, surgeons performing the wrong operation, or the operation on the wrong side. Errors like this are often not noticed until it is too late. In these cases, it is even more imperative to contact a Miami surgical error lawyer.
Failed or Late Diagnosis
If the medical professional did not act quickly enough, failed to monitor the patient for post-surgery complications or correctly diagnose a serious medical condition during a surgery, you should seek the professional help of an attorney right away. These types of situations can quickly become very complicated, so it is best to have a skilled attorney on your side.
The Treatment Your Physician Prescribed is Not Working
If you have done everything your doctor has asked, such as had the surgery, the prescribed medications, and gone through the therapies, and your medical condition is getting worse, you could have been misdiagnosed. It is also possible that your doctor has prescribed you the wrong medication or treatment plan.
