Sacramento Failure to Diagnose Attorney
When you brought complaints of troublesome symptoms to the attention of your primary care physician or a specialist in or near Sacramento, did he or she listen and respond appropriately? Or, did the doctor dismiss your complaints as insignificant or as evidence of hypochondria?
Alternatively, did your doctor take your complaints seriously and order tests but then fail to inform you when a diagnosis of "malignant" came back from the diagnostic lab? Was treatment of your cancer or other serious medical condition delayed unnecessarily because of your doctor's failure to diagnose your condition in at timely manner?
Perhaps you now face expensive surgery that could have been avoided if the cancer had been discovered in its early stages, when you first told the doctor about the lump in your breast or other symptoms. Perhaps you have little time left to live after your cancer metastasized when the lump was not removed on time.
Did Medical Negligence Cause Irreparable Harm?
Your "failure to diagnose" story may not be about cancer, but rather, about some other medical condition. For example, your OBGYN may have failed to diagnose your high-risk medical condition during pregnancy. Identifying the problem should have led to scheduling of a planned C-section. Instead, you went through a difficult labor and delivery, and your child suffered mild cerebral palsy. Could that outcome have been avoided with proper and timely diagnosis of your high-risk factors?
Turn your outrage into action and talk to one of our medical malpractice lawyers who will listen thoughtfully and offer initial recommendations with no charge or obligation.
Whatever happened to you after a California doctor failed to diagnose a serious condition, if you suffered expenses and losses as a result, you may have a claim for compensation. Talk to a medical malpractice attorney at the law offices of Teal Montgomery & Henderson.
When Delay or Misdiagnosis Leads to Death
What if your family member died when a doctor unnecessarily failed to diagnose a medical condition? Besides the sorrow of losing your loved one, your family faces funeral and burial costs as well as lost income of the deceased. A wrongful death deprives you of your loved one's companionship and practical contributions to your family life.
