Medical Injury

Misdiagnosis is a form of medical malpractice which occurs when a medical practitioner negligently treats a medical condition and misdiagnosis a condition such as cancer. The misdiagnosis may result in an injury to a patient. Misdiagnosis occurs when a doctor or medical staff does not detect and/or treat any form of cancer. It can also occur when a doctor attributes cancer symptoms to another disease or fails to test the cancer when signs exist.

The risk of death for a patient and the costs of treating late cancer is increased when there is a condition has been misdiagnosed. In the case of cancer malpractice, high dose chemotherapy or radiation therapy can be associated with high medical expenses and debilitating side effects.

A medical injury case can involve doctors, nurses, psychologists, support staff, chiropractors, surgeons, pediatricians, dentists, counselors, etc.
