Charlotte Misdiagnosis Attorney
Being diagnosed with cancer or any serious medical condition is distressing enough. Learning that your diagnosis was seriously delayed because of a doctor’s negligence may be a cause for legal action.
Misdiagnosis can lead to unnecessary and inappropriate medical treatment, ranging from failure to treat a condition in a timely manner to the administration of unneeded treatments.
- Did you report suspicious symptoms to your family physician or to an emergency room doctor, only to be told that your symptoms were imaginary or that your complaints were exaggerated?
- Did your doctor tell you that you had cancer — and remove your breast or other body parts — only to reporters afterward that the diagnosis had been in error?
- Did a family member report suicidal thoughts or thoughts of violence to an emergency room physician — only to be sent home, rather than admitted as was appropriate under the circumstances?
- Was your pending heart attack or stroke ignored by your family doctor or emergency room personnel — with devastating results shortly afterward?
