Preventable medical errors kill and seriously injure many Americans every year. In fact, a 2016 study published in The BMJ medical journal labeled “medical error” as the third leading cause of death in the United States. This is unacceptable. Cooley Iuliano Robey aggressively pursues medical malpractice claims for our clients who have been harmed or killed due to negligence or reckless mistake. Doctors and other medical professionals must be held accountable for the pain and suffering that result from medical negligence, or as it is often called, “medical malpractice.”
Healthcare providers have an absolute duty to safely and correctly treat patients. Medical malpractice refers to breach of this duty during the course of medical treatment by a doctor, surgeon, or other healthcare provider causing injuries or death to a patient. Delay in diagnosis may also have serious consequences to the patient and may give rise to a claim. Patients rely on their medical providers to provide them with accurate diagnoses, professional care and most importantly, respect. Often times, doctors or other treating professionals will try to “mask” their mistake by performing even more procedures, surgeries or treatment, only to make matters worse. If you believe your doctor has committed medical malpractice, you need legal assistance.
Many patients who are lucky enough to survive medical malpractice are often faced with months or years of pain and suffering and never regain the quality of life they enjoyed prior to the malpractice. Don’t sell yourself short – contact an attorney now!
Medical malpractice isn’t limited to only doctors, surgeons and nurses. Dental malpractice can seriously hinder a patient’s appearance and general health. This form of malpractice occurs when a dentist or dental professional negligently performs dental care. Whether your injuries were the result of surgical error, failure to diagnose, or negligent dental treatment – let us help you recover.
Our firm fights on behalf of our clients to recover every dollar they deserve. Initially, clients often seek recovery of medical expenses, lost wages and the cost of future treatment relating to your injury . In addition, our attorneys fight to recover compensation for physical pain and emotional distress endured by our clients, as well as the pain and suffering they will endure in the future.
