When Surgery Causes Additional Injury
Surgical errors are not always committed by the surgeon. The anesthesiologist, nursing staff or diagnostic staff may make mistakes or commit negligence that causes injury to the patient as well.
We can represent you in surgical malpractice claims involving:
- Negligent preoperative care
- Anesthesia errors
- Operating on the wrong patient
- Operating on the wrong part of the body
- Nicking an organ
- Surgical instruments left in the patient
- Failure to monitor patient after surgery
- Postoperative infection
- Defective surgical equipment
One of the most traumatic things about medical and surgical malpractice is that a person who was already ill is now facing an additional injury. A surgical error can cause injuries such as organ damage, paralysis, nerve damage, brain injury or amputation. The most severe cases may result in wrongful death of the patient.
You can rely on our thorough investigation and our network of specialized medical experts who assist us on malpractice claims. While we strive to resolve these claims without a trial, we are always prepared to take cases to court when that is in the clients' best interests.
