When a hospital, doctor or healthcare professional deviates from the standard of care, an illness or injury might occur. A medical professional might intentionally—or unintentionally—disregard the standard of care, resulting in a violation that could influence a medical malpractice claim.

Error or neglect in some of the following scenarios might warrant a lawsuit:*

• Misdiagnosis or failure to diagnose properly
• Unnecessary or incorrect surgery
• Wrong medication or incorrect dosage
• Serious infections acquired in the hospital
• Lack of follow up
• Failure to act on results of tests
• Leaving instruments or tools inside the patient’s body
• Persistent pain after surgery
• Premature discharge

Medicine remains an imperfect science, and for this reason, medical malpractice claims are highly complex.

Our team at Kang Law can help you determine if your case can withstand the key elements of medical malpractice that will hold the practitioner or facility accountable for wrong doing and get you the fair compensation you deserve.
