Misdiagnosis

Misdiagnosis is one of the most common types of medical mistakes made today.  Almost everyone is familiar with the idea of a total misdiagnosis, where the wrong disease is identified, but there are also several other types of partial misdiagnosis. A partial misdiagnosis can easily have an adverse effect on treatment and prognosis.  Other misdiagnoses include being diagnosed with the wrong disease, or being diagnosed as having a disease when a person is in fact healthy. 

Additionally, one may be misdiagnosed as healthy even though one is sick, one may be diagnosed as having a general disease with a misdiagnosis as to the subtype of the disease, and a doctor may fail to diagnose complications that may stem from an already diagnosed illness. A misdiagnosis may be malpractice if the doctor fails to get a medical history, order the appropriate test for the illness, or recognize the symptoms of the illness.  The doctor is under duty to perform to a certain standard of care when treating a patient in any way. 

If you or someone you know has been injured due to a misdiagnosis, you may be entitled to monetary compensation.  Please fill out the form below for a free evaluation of your claim by an experienced attorney.  There is no cost or obligation for this service.
