Surgical Malpractice
Nationwide Representation in Medical Malpractice Claims
Almost any surgery has inherent risks to the patient. Even when performed perfectly, a surgery may result in serious injury or death. However, there are many circumstances in which an elective procedure or relatively non-invasive, low risk surgery results in injury or worse. In these cases, it is likely that medical malpractice is to blame. A surgeon, anesthesiologist, nurse or any other medical professional associated with a surgery, including in pre-operative and post-operative care, may make a mistake or act negligently, therefore causing a great deal of damage.
An attorney can help if you or someone you know was the victim of surgical error or malpractice. By reviewing the circumstances of your procedure and consequent injuries, an attorney can determine the cause and prove the doctor’s or hospital’s responsibility. You may be entitled to financial compensation for medical care, lost wages from being unable to work, pain and suffering, and possibly more.
At the Law Offices of Dr. Bruce G. Fagel & Associates we offer a free initial consultation with a medical malpractice lawyer, giving you the opportunity to discuss your case with a legal professional who cares and is experienced enough to give the valuable advice you need.
Proving Negligence in Surgical Error Claims
It can be difficult to prove negligence in surgical malpractice claims, as the only witnesses are medical personnel. The victim is normally under anesthesia during surgery and may not be conscious at all. By reviewing medical records and using medical experts of our own, our firm can work to prove the surgeon or other medical professional’s negligence. We will also review post-operative care to see if any errors were made following your surgery.
