What is Medical Malpractice?
Medical providers must use sufficient skill when treating patients. This is called meeting the acceptable standard of care. When they don’t, patients receive substandard treatment, and many will fail to get well. They might even suffer terrible side effects.
Our clients are hurt in various ways:
- Diagnostic errors
- Faulty provision of care
- Prescription medication mistakes
- Botched surgeries
- Ineffective pain management
- Improper wound care
- Failure to provide information for an informed choice
- Lack of treatment plans for at-home care
Call us. We can go over the facts. We want to hear what happened and when, as well as why you suspect you did not receive adequate treatment. Many patients are confused, and everything is a blur. They also feel intense pain because they are still sick. Unfortunately, their doctors continue to tell them everything is fine, and no one is really willing to listen.
We will. Our firm has successfully brought malpractice claims against big hospitals in New York City, so we know what to expect. We are not intimidated by St. John’s Episcopal Hospital or any of the doctors who work there. We have gone toe-to-toe with the largest malpractice insurers in the state—and come out winners for our clients.
Based on what we find, we might file a legal complaint against the hospital or a doctor, nurse, or radiology tech—whoever is responsible for the malpractice. We will demand fair compensation for your injuries.
